This was a fun, quick romance read. I absolutely loved Theo and Marcela. Their chemistry was great and I loved their ability and willingness to communicate with each other. They were a fantastic couple. Also, MAJOR MAJOR PERKS FOR MARCELA'S BOOK LOVE!!!!! 

Where this lost me a little was 1) being a little too long and dragging at the end and 2) the development of Ben's character. I really didn't think it was necessary
for him to be as much of a possessive asshole/villain-type as he was in order to support the storyline and Theo and Marcela's relationship. I actually would have liked him to have stayed a nice guy and ended up with Alice to show that guys don't need to be an asshole for women to realize they're wasting their time pining over them.
Of course, I know that would have made for a different story, but it did dampen my enjoyment a little.

it had so much potential at the beginning but this is the blandest most cliche book i’ve read in a long time

This was such a fun read. I LOVED THEO he was just so sweet and thoughtful a very good book boyfriend. I think If you liked funny story by Emily Henry you might like this they felt kinda similar. Marcela was also a very good and realistic character.
