Love is not usually straight forward and this books shows this! With neurodiverse characters, Ruiz draws attention to those who may not see themselves in books, and its wonderful! Love can be messy and challenging and requires sacrifice, in ways that social media doesn't portray. If there was a real "Local" restaurant/bar, I would buy my ticket today!

it would have been a 4 stars if the audiobook narrators stayed in character. They threw me out of the story.

SOLELY because I have never read a book with such on-point adhd representation in women. Also does a good job showing the intrusive thoughts that come with OCD that aren’t talked about enough
