Reviews with content warning for Miscarriage - Ready or Not

I have never felt more seen by a line from a book than this one: "Everybody had better stop touching me or I'm going to start spin-kicking well-meaning men."

Oh, this was such a a sweet story, really was surprised how much I loved it. I loved the character's voice and I loved the narrator, it really made the book so enjoyable.

I also appreciated the pregnant sex scenes. The author did such a good job making a pregnant woman more dimensional than just the bump.

Firstly, if pregnancy is a difficult topic for you to read about, I would skip this one. Also, if you don't like to read about pregnancy, I'd skip this, but I can't believe I wasn't going to read it! It's advertised as a slow-burn, which I'm not a fan of, so I was going to skip it. But then I kept seeing good reviews for it, and let me just say that I'm so glad I picked it as one of my Book of the Month choices this month! All the characters were mature and self-aware and had depth. I loved the banter between Eve and Shep, and I also loved Eve and Willa's friendship. I want to go to a dog bar! It sounds amazing. And I loved the found family aspect. I can't wait to read more by the author! This will be one of my favourites of the year.

Protect Shep at all costs!

very cute friends-to-lovers.
eve was a bit annoying and i really wish there was more of an established baseline of her and shep's friendship before her pregnancy but the cute parts were really cute and both the boys were also unrealistically perfect.
