Did it need to be as long as it was? No. I still really enjoyed this book even with some of the cringey factor.

Way too long of a book. Need more plot. Baby is said so much it's nauseating.

I’d seen this book all over Instagram and decided to see if the hype was legit. Spoiler alert: IT IS. Funny banter, emotionally layered character connections, found family, FIVE ALARM SPICE. It was good! You definitely gotta read the prequel novella though, or Jake is gonna come on a bit strong without the context of his backstory with Rachel.

I loved this book, I loved their dynamics - but the grammatical errors drove me NUTS! Took off a star because of it.

 Wow, a lot sure can happen to a gal in 5 months!

Are there some problematic elements in this story? Yes. Was it enjoyable? Hell yes!

This was such a fun take on a RH MMFM relationship, but oh yeah...what mess. While it is a loooong book that could have easily trimmed ~300 pages without losing anything from the (lack of) plot, I never felt the need to skim. It is a very easy read and, for the most part, well-written.

Each character is fun, but they all read college-age NA to me rather than their actual 27-30 y.o (with the exception of maybe Ilmari). There were a number of times I had to eye roll over some of their choices or actions, but again, it didn't take away from my overall enjoyment of the book.

All-in-all, it's a low angst, high steam, insta-love, sex fest of a book!
