I read and loved another Brown Sisters book last year and I was right to finally pick up another one. This author truly has a way of writing simple but real stories with characters that are deeply flawed yet so incredibly likeable and relateable. 
I saw so much of myself in the MC. And seeing her learning to take a leap and break through her conditioned behaviour is honestly a little healing, especially when it comes to dating and relationships. 
Really enjoyed this book, really connected with everyone. We love a man written by a woman. We love  good representation for black people, Plus-Size people, and disabled people. 
This just made me chest feel a bit warm and fuzzy and  made me feel a little bit braver to stray from my set ways of life that may be comfortable, but aren't actually helping me in the long run.

I'm finding this book hard to rate because I read it in 4 days and had a lot of fun, but it's not quite my type of romance. Loved the representation and how funny the dialogue is. However, the relationship felt a bit rushed and the third act breakup annoyed me.
