I love this book!! All the characters are amazing, it talks so openly about mental health and sexuality, includes non-binary characters like it is no big deal, and switches POV’s between both main characters. This was the first book that made me feel the way Red White and Royal Blue did, and I LOVED RWRB.

This book got me like into 2 reading slumps, but ended up being really good. I totally cried when they separated. It was quite good! Like i really liked the mental health rep and the characters were likable and relatable

I am absolutely FLOORED by how much I loved The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun. I totally swooned for Dev and Charlie’s love story.
Beyond the romance factor of this book, it explores mental illness and disorders in a compassionate manner that I haven’t really seen in romance before. I wasn’t expecting this from the debut author, but I am so grateful it was included. Everyone deserves to know that they can be loved exactly as they are, and I think Dev and Charlie will provide that lens for many people who should see themselves represented in romance.
This book is also just funny!! I will scream about it to anyone who will listen: read this book!!
Thank you Atria and Netgalley for the ARC of The Charm Offensive in exchange for an honest review.

I have re-read this book four times now. It’s still as amazing as the first time.
No one who knows me should be surprised that this is still a 5 star read all these years later.
