When a girl with ADHD and a boy with autism end up thrown together to work for a start-up while traveling around Europe, they find love. And maybe their future.
What a cute neurodiverse rom-com! I really enjoyed it! I liked that Tilly had no idea where her life was going after high school. I think this is underrepresented in YA/NA books. I also liked that she stood firm on her choices.
Her mother in the end redeemed herself for her bad parenting. Which I was very glad for.
I loved the ending and how she found her own way to start her adulthood. I loved all of Oliver's family and friends and want some of them as friends for myself!
Overall, a great OWNVOICES romance!
The narration was pretty good, though the male narrator made Tilly's lines annoying, as his version of her voice was grating!

Trigger warnings: ableism in regards to adhd and autism, alcohol mention, sexual content mention
Mazey Eddings writes neurodiverse books that scratch my brain like no other. The mannerisms, descriptions, thought processes, and all around chaos vibes are so up my alley.
Tilly and Ollie were such soft and cute characters to follow through this book. Their confusion on feelings and sensations resonated with me despite me being a whole eight years older than they are. Their tentative connection over neurodivergence and subsequent romantic development was so tender and innocent. I loved them so much.
Tilly’s growth as a young girl finding her independence alongside unmasking her ADHD was a really heartwarming emotional journey to follow. I loved seeing her come out of her shell, shrug off the weight of others watching and scrutinising her, making choices that made her happy.
Superb book. Can’t wait for my physical copy!!
