Audio version is great. Liked the ADHD and OCD representation. Not gonna lie, if my kid dropped out of Harvard medical school to be a busker I’d struggle as a parent too…but glad she’s following her passion.

Cute romance book. I liked the OCD representation. I thought Raine and Jack were good characters (although the others weren't as starkly defined - part of that is probably my fault because I didn't read the first book in the series!). I liked the resolution the novel and the protagonists arrive at. It feels realistic and not limiting like in some romance books. The fact that it took so long to get there feels a bit silly (and Raine and Jack, although they do communicate ... also don't in a frustrating way?), but it's a romance book and it's not nearly the biggest offender that I've read.
I listened to the audiobook. I liked the dual narration approach. Both of the voice actors added great character to the ... characters.

This book is such a delight! I love the integration of Irish slang/phrases and the neurodiversity representation! I think Ruiz writes the neurodiversity well, and makes it relatable with certain aspects, and for others helped me understands it more! Wasn’t quite a 5 star for me, but very close, would definitely recommend! It also made me want to read other books from Sarah Grunder Ruiz now!
A neurodivergent couple, a cat, and a pub in Ireland- it’s sweet and charming and the audio is a 10.
