I thoroughly enjoyed this, it was funny and had well fleshed out main characters, but I'm still knocking down a star because there was a bunch of jokes I couldn't get behind (for example, yes the tiny dick joke is still transphobic and anti-intersex and therefore not funny)

EDIT: was feeling re-ready and I think I still enjoyed this one just as much if not more than before (also yes there are still a couple of jokes that aren't that funny but the rest makes up for it)

This book was so good, I laughed out LOUD all the time it was so funny. Loved the british humor and setting in general. 

One thing to note is that they got together and were happy about 2/3 of the book in, so I was always just waiting for something bad to happen because there was still a whole third of the book left... but I liked the ending and I also liked how the 'bad thing' wasn't that terrible or cringe.

I really enjoyed the book, it’s a great take on the fake dating trope. There’s some really hilarious dialogue throughout. 

A couple scenes in the book may be triggering for those with BPD and/or abandonment issues.

A nice read-in-two-days-romance/rom-com. In the middle I was a bit annoyed at Lucien's behaviour, but he definitely got better from then on. Could have had a bit more depth overall, but it's okay. One day I'll read Part 2.
