- DELILAH GREEN DOESN'T CARE is everything a romance novel should be. Funny, full of vibrant characters, fast paced, and whew, spicy. On top of all that, it's got a meaty plot that explores hard and important life experiences.
- I loved that it was not quite friends to lovers and not quite second chance, but also not NOT those things. It was messy, but always clear that Delilah and Claire were good together.
- There's a lot going on in this book but it never feels to crowded: instead the characters feel like real people living real, complicated lives, and discovering new things about themselves and the others in their lives along the way.

This was delightful! A Sapphic rom com that hits all the marks. This is the type of book that you can somehow see yourself in every character main character.
Delilah Green gives the attitude of not caring. An artist, living in New York, but from Oregon. When she was young her father passed away leaving her alone with her stepsister & stepmother who she instantly felt distant. The moment she turned 18 she fled to New York to start a life she could thrive in. Now her stepsister is getting married, and she is being paid to be the wedding photographer. If she didn't need the money she wouldn't go.
The antics, the relationships, the character development. This was a fun and soul filling read. I laughed at the beginning and cried happy tears at the end, and I never cry. I LOVED seeing myself in Claire. A bisexual mother as one of the main characters in a story. That alone is absolutely wonderful.
Thank you Berkley for sending me this advanced copy. It is a new favorite. Highly recommend.

trigger warnings: emotionally abusive parent, death of parent, divorce, bullying, sexual content, alcohol, pregnancy and single parenting
Somehow I have a found a book that reflects me a little too much. That, or I managed to project every single aspect of myself onto this book. OOF this hit hard. It's a lighthearted sapphic romance and here I was ruminating on my own sense of self alongside Delilah's reevaluation of her entire life as a lonely teenager.
Top selling points for this book: everyone's described as hot, the smut is great, hysterical, reconciliation with estranged siblings, everybody is a little bit gay even if they don't know it.
I can't fucking wait for Astrid's book!!!!
