This was a very sweet book, I liked the characters and the bachelor tv show
sophie_78's review against another edition

I'm going to start this review off by saying that besides the LGBT aspect of this book the rest did not interest me at all.
The relationship was so difficult to get infested in. The characters just seemed boring with the only unique thing about them being their mental health which is not what I am looking for in a book. The whole OCD situation with Charlie was interesting at first but feels forgotten near the end of the book, which makes it unrealistic and gets me out of the story. And Dev's depression just seemed rushed and more of a side story even though he is one of the main characters.
We also didn't get enough time with Charlie and Dev together to make me infested in what kind of relationship they have, the relationship between them just seem shallow and uninteresting, I wish there was maybe some domestic fluff at the end of the book to make up for it but there was not which gave it a weird abrupt end.
The worst thing was probably the built up to their eventual relationship, every time they seemed to get somewhere it ended up being 'practice' and the progression was immediately shut down, which gets so annoying after a while. Their relationship just wasn't enjoyable to read about at all.
The only reason I finished this book is because I rarely DNF books.
