this was such a sweet book. i love the main characters so much and i found them so much more relatable than other contemporary romance characters. i really enjoyed the setting of the story.

the only thing that was off-putting about the book was how slow it felt at times. it wasn’t the whole story, there were literally pages of miscommunication and frustration that i felt were not very important. also, gus’s speech at the end about naomi really frustrated me because he basically made it sound like he was ready to give up january for naomi. like even after everything they went through he dtill sounded ready to drop january completely. apart from that, he’s definitely one of my favorite book boyfriends. 

would definitely reread again ✅
