Made a mistake in listening to the audiobook for this one. Unfortunately, could not stand Aiden’s voice or character.

this book was phenomenal.
moving forward, every single rom-com i read will now be compared to this, however this sets the bar so unbelievably high that I fear nothing will compare to it.
this isn’t a wanky cliche romance.
these characters feel real - they’re complex and make you feel exposed, but they’re also relatable and comforting and you root for them as if they’re your best friends.
you need to read this immediately.

Was at least hoping she’d go on actual dates? The purpose of the radio show was a complete flop without the dates, much like this story.

This book is also extremely forgettable as nothing notable happens and the dynamic between all of the characters lack depth. We don’t even get to see the main characters get to know one another in any meaningful way. The intrigue was lost before I got halfway through. Meh.
