I enjoyed this book and getting to know these characters. I didn't read anything about the book going in so I was happily surprised when I learned that the FMC was autistic. I found a lot of similarities that I could relate to with her. I'm not a fan of miscommunication tropes and 3rd act breakups, especially with how direct Stella was being it made me frustrated.

Didn't hate or like it - a bit cringey. I don't have much to say, but I wish I cared about the characters more.

I enjoyed this book and it was an easy read. I feel the author did a very good job at describing the main character’s autism, I really felt her emotions at times throughout the story.

I’m probably more disappointed than you are that I DNF’d this. Especially because in the first few chapters of this book I actually thought this could be a five star read. Yeah, no … The problem is just that I despised our main characters, but even then I don’t think I hated them as much as they hated themselves. Stella is fine with people treating her like a sex doll just because she thinks so lowly of herself, and Michael keeps repeating he’s just such a terrible person and turning out exactly like his father when he has literally done nothing wrong. Well, he is extremely possessive of Stella already, so perhaps there’s that. Ugh, I just wanted to love this but I can’t stand it anymore.

This was cute book. It was a decent read. The characters were alright and their relationship were okay. The plot was decent and the writing kept me engaged. There was a lot of miscommunication at the end that I thought was irritating.
