2.0

I wanted so badly to love this book, but it really didn't work for me. Many others have loved it though, so I'm quite positive it is a me thing...but here are my thoughts.

1. I LOVED the meet cute. It was adorable and then she helped him fix his project and she was so patient and sweet and Dan was just adorable.

2. I didn't appreciate how one minute she didn't want Dan to stand up for her at the dental school but he could later in a social setting...

3. This book was incredibly crude/crass and it totally ruined it for me. Those parts were so frequent that they kept interrupting the flow of the book for me.

4. I did think the anxiety rep was decent. I like how it ended with some characters getting the professional help they needed.

But unfortunately the parts that didn't work for me far outweighed the good.

I received an advanced copy of this book through NetGalley. This is my honest review.
