IF ANYONE DARES TO SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT THIS BOOK I WILL UNFRIEND YOU IMMEDIATELY

mazey eddings, not only is your Instagram account hilarious but your writing style is absolutely brilliant. I can’t even begin to express why I am so amazed by this book starting with how it incorporates so many topics so respectfully and naturally. but plan to read an amazing story with realistic representation of topics like mental health, feminism, abusive relationships, death it’s all in there and I love it. I admire how mazey connected mental health and ableism and how you can manage it. the description of anxiety made me feel seen (as a person that has anxiety) and it’s executed in a way that seriously stunned me. I love the characters. I love Dan (even though he has a slightly weird name), I love Harper, I love everybody in this book. mazey eddings manages it to write alluring and lovable characters that you just wanna hug.

What I particularly enjoyed was for example how dan realized it’s not healthy for him to stay if harper was just playing with him and I love that harper realized that it was the best step to take. I really enjoyed how the storyline between parents and the main character made you get so much more inside to the character itself and how parents affect the relationship that you have to yourself . i adore dan and harper together, I adore their random grocery runs and I absolutely adore how dan always notices the anxiety that harper feels. get me a dan right now please and thank you.

I just have to say I am eternally grateful for this book. it’s an amazing book for women in STEM and I see absolutely no flaw in this book (but maybe it’s just a post haze from just finishing the book but yolo)

I DEEPLY RECOMMEND READING THIS BOOK xoxo love u

p.s.: i think i was definitly high with good-book-weed

“I know I’m a mess. I know … I know I’m not easy to love…”

“Harper, loving you is the easiest thing I’ll ever do.”

this book was so sweet it gave me cavities. listen, if the characters of this book were allowed to make dental related puns so can i.

a brush with love was absolutely adorable and hilarious but it also was quite heavy at times—but i didn’t mind it. there was always a good balance between the heavy and the light. there were some issues i had (such as the pacing and certain things/choices characters made) but once again my love for the characters and book as a whole outweighed the bad. and i loved this book. it filled me with so much serotonin and genuinely made me laugh out loud (actually laugh and not just where you suck in a huge gust of air and exhale it).

also, this whole book felt very ali hazelwood like. that’s not a critique. it’s a compliment. i cannot wait to read the sequel and see what kind of ridiculous situations that will transpired. and i can’t wait to catch up with dan, harper, judy the cat, alex, thu, indira, lizzie (and her mysterious love interest), and the rest of the characters. except the giles brothers. they better not make a reappearance.

“Harper, have you ever had the overwhelming urge to rip out your reproductive tract and use the fallopian tubes to choke the stupidity out of men? Because that’s where I’m at.”

as someone with anxiety and adhd, the representation shown in harper and lizzie made me feel so seen and so not alone that it felt like my heart was given a hug!!
