My sister asked if I only read depressing books, so here is proof that I also dabble in fun romances.

This story is so cute! It was the perfect kind of YA Rom-Com: grounded, joyful, instructional, and silly. I had a lot of fun the whole time.

had me laughing out loud at times, the dialogue/banter was amazing and the characters were all complex. touched on ‘deep’ topics without taking you out of the story.

I love a good retelling, and Twelfth Knight delivered a fun one with some sharp commentary on what it is like for women in the gaming and fandom world. It definitely leaned a little too heavy on the preachy side at times, but I still really appreciated Viola’s character and how she navigated those challenges.

The whole thing was cute, quick, and easy to read. Perfect for when you want something light but still thoughtful. It had enough charm to keep me hooked and enough heart to make me root for the characters the whole way through.

Good fun YA romance novel. The characters were engaging and I enjoyed the feminist ideas that came through. Loved the Twelfth Night nods, too.
