i went into this blind and when i got to the accidental pregnancy i was iffy to keep reading because I don't like that trope but this !!! book!!! i promise it's so worth it.
win and bo are so loveable (they feel so real to me) i was swooning so hard, their dynamic, the way the communicate, the banter, the smut was excellent, and I just love their little family. <333

It’s so much easier to communicate insecurities when you don’t need to communicate them at all. Isn’t that all we ever want? To be seen and heard? Validated, even when we’re not able to ask for it.
Unlike most readers, I don't dislike the main trope in "Out On a Limb." I don't mind the tropes in this book, especially the main one. HBY did the book justice because she wrote it beautifully, and you won't even be bothered by it.
This book was like a warm hug. I found myself wishing this was already released, and that I had read this, when I was still pregnant. I felt so seen by Win's worries. The representation of disabilities was also great. Regarding Bo, I'll just come out and say it: he's perfect. I found myself wishing I had my own Bo as my beau (hehe).
At times, I found Win's constant second-guessing of Bo's intentions annoying, which started around the 46% mark. However, her qualms about Bo did not last long, which was good. Some conversations in the book were longer than necessary, which made the pacing feel a little dragging. Despite this, the book was still wonderfully written, and these issues of mine were not a dealbreaker.
I'm giving this book a rating of 4.5 stars because, while it was good, it didn't quite have that "5-star feeling" for me. I read it on my Kindle (it's available for free on Kindle Unlimited), but I didn't feel compelled to purchase a physical copy to reread it over and over again. Nevertheless, as I mentioned before, it was a good book, and I would certainly recommend it to anyone.
