1/5 stars
this was a tough one to get through, just ask my family who heard all of my complaints. I think my biggest issue was the fact that they literally had multiple instances where they had clear mutual attraction or a moment almost happened, and then turned around and was like "the other person could never like me :(" like the fact that that exact scenario happened multiple times frustrated me so much. the 3rd act is a train wreck in which I felt bad or happy for either main character.
and I'm sorry, but listening to the description of Rosie's first book only confused me more. I literally had zero idea what the book would potentially be about.

The first half of the book(even less than a half)was good.Afterwards ,everything went down hill.
This was not a slow burn,they fell in love so fast,they just didn’t admit it till the end of the book.If they take a long time to kiss,also,doesn’t mean that it’s a slow burn romance.
What I didn’t like about the book:
-Rosie sometimes was kinda cringe
•“You look one hundred precent amazing.No,one hundred and twenty precent because you….you’ve broken the scale. He laughed again,and I had to clamp my mouth down to keep myself from exposing myself anymore”
•“‘I’m not,Rosie…I’m very,very far from being a virgin.’ ‘Good for you!’”
*and more*
-Everytime they tried to get things further,someone or something interrupted them.
•“He groaned deep in his throat and …. A ring tone sounded”
•“‘Rosie?’a familiar voice sliced right through the moment.’Hello,Rosie?Are you here?’”
•“The scent of ….smoke.’Oh crap!’I snapped into action,joining Lucas at the oven and peeking at the charred remains of what had once been two pizzas.”
•”’The music,’she added quietly,breathlessly.‘It stopped.’…’A rat!Is that a rat?’”
-“That’s my girl”not even 200 pages in.
-The obsession with the word zeroed
I don’t know why I even bother to write so many arguments,the book is not worth it.
I’m happy I finished it,even though I dragged myself to do so.
