The love interest deserves something more then this shipwreck of a person. She'd be more loved and respected by a pair of crocs, because at least they would not betray her like the main character did.

4.0

A solid late twenties romance framed by an Armenian American cultural context. Idk, not rly much to say abt it. I didn't find the main character that likeable.

Like only realizing she doesn't love her partner after 6 years is crazy 💀 and then the lack of communication with like everyone in her life. Obviously there'd be no book without these character flaws, but it's just kinda silly like when all the conflict is easily avoidable and derived from poor communication.

This is def a culturally specific book. Its brilliant writing is what makes it so good. The way the author was able to weave Armenian culture into a coming out narrative is awesome! I loved every minute of it!!!!

4.0

Full  of wonderful Armenian cultural events, food, history, and celebrations, this novel is joyous and rich, entertaining and emotional. I liked the friendships, family, and romantic love—though some ill-phrased sentiments made for hurt and anxiety, the true feelings sorted themselves in a believable, agreeable way. I might have liked to get out of Naure’s head and subjectivity, to see her better, but otherwise this is a gem of a romance novel.
