The writing style very much fits with the young adult genre, despite some explicit scenes. However, the character development is strong and the two main characters equally lovable for different reasons. The book touches on some important topics without trivialising them. If you enjoy a good love story then it’s not one to be missed.

It read like a YA book with some added sex scenes. Everyone says this book made them sob but maybe I'm cold as ice because at no point did I cry. I felt bad for what archer went through as a child yes, and bree witnessing her father's death. Insta-love trope. And the ending was so cliche and predictable.

This is my new favorite book. The amount of times I laughed, my jaw dropped, and I sobbed. I never cried this much from a book. It was perfect<33

I had higher hopes for this one as it’s recommended constantly. I gave it 4 stars so I definitely didn’t hate it but I sure didn’t LOVE it either. It’s a unique story but I felt like there are some gaps.

Why couldn’t Archer get the surgery to fix his voice when he got older? There was a lot that felt like foreshadowing during the story but it ended up just being the way the author was writing. There were a couple of phrases that were overused throughout and the repetition bothered me sometimes. Otherwise it was cute and unique, just not sure why so many people are in LOVE with the story.

I loved this book a ton. I would give it a 5 star if the writing was a little better. I personally enjoy Mia Sheridan’s writing, but the writing and dialogue in this book was just cringy sometimes. Like when

Archer and Bree start texting “Ilu” and “Ilu2”

I sort of cringed. That opinion might completely be just me though. I also feel like the spice was not needed. I was really hoping this would be a spice-free, heartfelt read.  Personally, I think the book would have been much better if the spice was left out. Despite these few flaws, this book was AMAZING and will always be held near and dear to my heart. This book made me gasp and laugh and cry and experience all the emotions. I would recommend this to anyone.
