This book was just so freaking cute I couldn’t stand it. I am a SUCKER for banter and this book delivers it in spades. There were times I thought it took a little too long to get to the point, but it paid off in the end.

Finished over two days but the off-handed ableist, anti-fat and patriarchal gender role descriptions ruined the fun for me. Also some of the behaviour of the male lead felt like the early signs of coercive and controlling partners. Worries me to think younger readers might seeing this as romantic rather than on the highway to abuse.
