- Friends to lovers
- Workplace romance (but they work in comedy so not an office setting)
- Deaf representation
- Dad with a kid love interest
- Fake dating setup kind of? they clearly love each other from the start so it didn’t feel very fake date-y to me, which is good cause it’s not my fav trope
- So freaking funny- like yes it’s a book about comedians but it’s actually really laugh out loud funny
- Has the taking care of when sick trope
The authors note says she wrote this book for anyone who had ever felt “too much” and there were parts of this book that just hit so hard. Just please read it. It will make you squeal with joy, and give you all the feels.

My is a well developed character and I enjoyed his journey, and the relationships with his daughter, Hazel. Hazel and Fee’s relationship is a winner from the start, though I was hoping for more growth or exploration of Fee’s story; it felt like a bit of a quick fix at the end then a skip and a hop to the epilogue.
Quotes from comedians prologuing each chapter is a wonderful touch, and foreshadows what is to come in each chapter. The first person dual POV serves this story well, and the time jumps are easy to follow.
