I didnt connect with the characters as much as I would have liked but it was still a cute romcom , definitely some dark moments tho. I also don't remember much content warnings so bare with me.

MY FAVORITE BOOK RIGHT NOW! What do I even say about this book. January Andrews is literally my favorite books girl ever, and GUS MF EVERETT, I have no words. It was impeccable and I would sell my soul over and over again just to read it for the first time!!!

I devoured this book in two big chunks over two days. Books about writers just hit differently. I adored their rivalry, their camaraderie, the way previous misunderstandings unraveled between them. Little more steam than my preference, but the scenes were still on the tasteful side, relatively. My only other critique is that January seemed to drink a *lot* of wine.

Highly recommend the audiobook read by Julia Whalen.
