Tropes: opposites attract, miscommunication

Enjoyed the musical parts of this story the most, but found the gratuitous sexual content too much. The texting was a more realistic part of the relationship development than the in-person stuff, which was essentially all Insta-lust, all the time. An enjoyable read, regardless. I did feel sorry for the MMC and the way he was treated by so many people.

10/10. I really enjoyed this book. Even when I wasn't reading it, I was thinking about the characters. This book made me laugh, made me cry, made me horny, and made me frustrated. I wouldn't change anything about this book. I highly recommend it.

This wasn't a bad story, there were definitely some good things in it, but it reminded me why I like my romance as the subplot and preferably in a fantasy world.
