I had fun reading this book. It was cute and I did like it. I thought Astrid and Jordan were cute together. I didn't like it as much as the first one book.

super cute storyline. it was nice to see this different side of astrid and her finding herself. relatable for bisexual girlies who didn’t realize they were queer. 

i think i'm still partial to delilah green but this was still a great book and i love the way the author writers romance

Cute and fluffy. The banter when the two get together is very adorable and honestly, I would read a whole cozy story about their life together; just being cheesy and succeeding in life. [As a side note, did not know there was smut in the book. That was a surprise. I don't like sex scenes, but I didn't feel like I had missed anything by skipping them.]

What I did not like was Jordan convincing Astrid to take credit and then Astrid convincing herself it was her fault for taking the credit??? Like what?

All of the content warnings in minor are backstory to the characters "how did we end up here/why we are the way we are". They are not the focus and pretty glossed over (told not showed).

I love Herring-Blake’s writing style! Her characters feel so real and alive and I’m obsessed with every page. I just want more and more.
