I really loved this book! The story was so cute and wonderful, and I absolutely loved the mental health representation. I felt so seen with the rep and it was wonderful to see my mental health represented.

The moment I realised that the author, Alison Cochrun, was a teacher, I knew it was going to be good. 

The adorable love story aside, this story has some of the best mental illness representation that I have read in a long time. She treats the topic and the characters with dignity without shying away from the difficult and often messy parts. It was refreshing and great to see. 

While the love was adorable and realistic, the conflict resolution seemed a little random. But overall, a great queer read about loving quirky people!

This was such an adorable queer joy book with mlm and acespec representation, and a desi main character set in a reality TV background! I loved the mental health representation and it was done so well in this book, it made me really happy šŸ’— I wish they included more of Dev's Desiness and more Indian parts. And I also love how amazing the side characters were, it was their story as well. I love reading books with queer mcs in reality television, I think it's becoming one of my favorite tropes, another favorite pf mine being I'll Be The One, that was such a wholesome book. Definitely recommend reading!
