I had heard allot of good about this book when I got it and were excited to read it! But as I were starting to read my friend told me she only had heard bad stuff about it so I got in with a mix or feelings. I did like it in the beginning but I think it when down hill from around the middle (I don’t know). I didn’t realize the age difference from the beginning

8 years(!!). So that’s together with how Adam treated her and how she always commented his age! I found disturbing and aaa.

. In the end I were also annoyed with how dumb Olive is! I think it’s a mix of her not wanting to believe in stuff but also overthinking that made me angry with her. I would have liked to read it from Adams point of view but at the same time no. I’m sad to say my friend were right, I don’t recommend this book :( 

Took me nearly 9 hours :D

Okay so I loved this overall. Adam is such a good bf but…. I found olive adorable but also annoying. For a scientist her inner thoughts made her seem like such an airhead. Miscommunication trop isn’t my favorite but they have cute moments and overall amazing chemistry. I was really happy with how things ended and ugh he is so perfect. Really fun fake dating, protective broody grump w/ bubbly naive sunshine. Very fun overall worth the read and has some really funny and tension filled moments

Definitely not as great as BookTok made it out to be but then also not as bad as Book Twitter made it out to be.

This book was okay. i don’t really think it lived up to the hype though. there were some cute moments and a good plot but in my opinion the dialogue was incredibly cheesy (not in a good way) and Adam’s character never really fully won me over. i understood why he was the way that he was, but i never felt that it was justifiable.. idk maybe that’s just me.
