This book was amazing. It had biracial relationships, lgbtq+ characters, transgender representation, mental health representation as well. It was amazingly written but due to the medium pace it was a 4.5 for me.

And this was probably caused by my adoration towards enemies-to-lovers/ dislike-to-love stories. And one of the reasons I love this trope is because we first get to see the characters as flawed people. Because the character don’t understand each other, they easily find flaws that make them instantly feel more human to me.
In this book, however, August falls in love with Jane at first sight (which I’m not even going to comment on because who hasn’t randomly fallen in love for a few seconds with someone on public transportation?) and from then on, in her perspective, she’s perfect. And it’s perfectly normal to see your crush like they are the sun. But Jane retained this mystical, perfect feeling about her all throughout the novel that made me not be able to connect with her.
Don’t get me wrong, the romance was adorable and made my stomach do some weird flips a few times. But I wasn’t as invested into their relationship as I would’ve liked since this is still a romance novel. However, talking about relationships, I was so freaking invested in the found family aspect. I love Myla, Niko and Wes with all my heart. And I think Niko might be my new role model. I just love psychics and I think we need more stories about them. Please and thank you.

cover design review: ★★☆☆☆. yikes, it's just overwhelming. let's count the different typefaces: author name (1), bestselling author (2), title (3), "a novel" (4), Q line symbol (5), and tagline (6). all the different colors, three shades of purplish pink that don't go well together, the "S" is higher than the "TOP" in "STOP", Jane's posture looks stiff and unnatural, just very disappointing. the Spanish edition is gorgeous 😭 and the Portuguese edition is good too, love the art style and the easter eggs from the story but i think the character design is somewhat juvenile

9th book of January 2022 and 9th of the year:
Another amazing book by a favorite author! I laughed my butt off throughout the entire book, fell in love with all of the characters SO quickly, and loved all of the representation and the queer found family aspect in it. I fully want to read an entire book series based on Jane’s life, and I also can’t wait to start the author’s newest book! Some author-provided TWs are (on page) drinking, light drug use(weed), semi-public sex, sexual content, exploration of depression and anxiety, memory loss and cognitive issues, familial estrangement, familial death, grief, missing persons, implied PTSD, and (off-page/past/alluded to) homophobic violence and hate speech, police violence, the AIDS crisis, racism, childhood neglect, arson, and a historic hate crime resulting in loss of life📚♥️🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
