4.75 stars!! I absolutely loved and adored this book so much. The whole time i was like “this is what men written like women are like”. There are so many sweet and incredible quotes from this that I just wanted to highlight the whole book. Alex and Henry are truly my favorite and I love the way this book made me feel

So far one thing that I didn't like in one of the chapters on of the earlier ones I forgot which one it was in but anyway I didn't like where a little ducking got picked up by a crow and that didn't sit well with me at all. Why is the father of this girl an asshole and some parents want to have their kids close to home or not pushing them out of the house till they are ready to be on their own till at least kids figure out and have enough money to be on their own and apartment to live in. And it shouldn't be up to the parents to make up their children's minds on how they would live their lives and I didn't like this book or this story from beginning to the ending and also didn't like the part where animals were being used once about and this time they had to be locked in caged for some stupid party. Also I have found that Cassie was pretty annoying where if she was so worried about her period being late she should got checked out or took a pregnancy test and it was a good thing I didn't waste my money on being this one.

Alex and Henry's story was charming. It's unfortunate their personal relationship didn't get more time on the page. On one hand it makes sense. A large portion of the book focuses on politics since it's a central part of their lives. On the other, the story was billed as a romance.

So easy and good. The love story is effortless, and entertaining. A blissful imagining of another world where the ending could actually happen.

despite taking a four day break from reading, this book ultimately won my heart. i’d give it a 3.5 stars overall purely based on my lack of knowledge on politics to understand what was happening at some points. but june alone brings it up to a 4 star rating because june is just an icon.
“history huh? bet we could make some” has become one of my new favourite book quotes i would happily tattoo on my forehead.
