This book had a lot of character growth while also including a good romance. I enjoyed Marcela and Theo, although Ben was super frustrating.

Too drawn out, writing was stiff, and Marcella was soooo frustrating. But I finished it and I liked Theo.

Absolutely obsessed with this book! I was hooked from the beginning. I loved the two main characters, they had the best chemistry/tension. I loved that Marcela was librarian and a book lover, appreciated all the references for bookish people. I also loved Theo, he was a great MMC. Ben got on my nerves but that was definitely intentional. I loved the best friend’s brother, fake dating aspects. The side characters brought a lot of fun energy to the book, and I’m excited to read the next book in this series. This book made me blush and swoon so many times. I loved it, Gabriella Gamez did a great job. I loved her writing!

Oof this one was rough. This book was sooooooo much inner monologue that I'm sure if you took most of it out, you wouldn't have an actual story. It was like these two characters were in love with other people and then suddenly in love with each other but no action that led to them falling in love. All the drama in this book felt surface level and unnecessary. Then at around 80%, the FMC was in love with the MMC but dumped him when he said he wanted to be with her, decided she wanted to try with him and then spent the last 10-15% of the book waffling back and forth between "I love him but I'm afraid to tell him" and "I'm afraid he'll leave me" despite him working overtime to show her he wanted her. Honestly, they should have cut about 100 pages.
