i wish we got to explore delilah and astrid’s relationship more and how that grows, but that’s probably what the other books in the series are for. i do really like the banter from the characters though and the chemistry was good! the first half was addicting and the second half dragged a bit.

At times the book was a little cringey or cliche and sometimes the characters were a bit immature but I think it’s because they had a lot of unresolved trauma. I really liked Iris and Delilah’s back and forth banter. It was nice to see how these ladies’ relationships developed. The sex scenes were very beautiful and well-written. I did feel like sometimes the author over emphasized their queerness and feminism to the point where the sentence was a little awkward or cringey.
All in all a very cute read. I enjoyed it.

This book is so good! The queer joy, the family dynamics, the cute relationship vibes, the TRUST! Delilah Green absolutely cares about so many things and so many people, and seeing her flourish was so lovely and heartwarming.
Read this book if you love
💜 Sapphic romance
💜 found family
💜 only one bed
💜 grumpy/sunshine
💜 single parent
💜 strong female friendship
This was my first time reading a single parent romance and I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it! It’s definitely made me more open to other single parent books in the future.
I will definitely be reading the rest of the Bright Falls books. 4.5 stars

Moderate: Alcohol
It’s not necessarily a bad thing, but there is near constant mention of alcohol and wanting alcohol to cope with situations. It’s not bad, but if you’re sensitive to discussions of alcohol this might not be for youhayleyvem's review against another edition
