This is an adorable coming of age LGTBQ+ love story between two college freshmen. Both protagonists are dealing with various challenges from their pasts, and both learn to value themselves for who they truly are rather than who they think they should be.

I kept putting this book off for so long but once I started reading I didn’t want to put it down. This book was so much fun and I really enjoyed reading it. I loved seeing Molly grow more comfortable being herself and I also loved seeing Alex change and learn to let others in. I wish we got to see more of them together after the final chapter but overall this book was really sweet and I can’t wait to see what the author writes next!

This was a lovely read. A fun, queer "enemies"-to-friends-to-lovers journey ("enemies" in quotations because they don't like each other at first, but it isn't a deep hatred.. more of a lite version). I do wish we had more of "lovers" time, though!

A lot of sweetness, funny moments, banter, and I loved getting to know each character through the dual POV.

Normally I don't like romcoms but something about this really charmed me. The plot itself is a romcom mainstay (the characters are forced to spend time together for a ridiculous reason) but the characters are designed well enough that it feels like something they would do, and the character growth throughout was great.
