I finished this book in merely two sittings, simply because you know, a chronically ill woman reading about another chronically ill woman’s love life gets reminded of the fact that she should get some sleep once in a while. Do I still cringe at certain descriptions in romance novels? For sure. Am I still convinced this book is revolutionary in more ways than one? No doubt about it.

The representation in this book means so much to me, as someone who’s been struggling with chronic pain, fatigue and the insecurities that come along with it for free. Be sure to pick it up if you like the enemies-to-lovers trope with a dual point of view, love cats just as much as I do, are into artsy guys and can strongly identify with a disabled, Black and/or curvy female protagonist. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 (4.5 out of 5 stars) from me!

Although I’d say the writing style isn’t anything extraordinary, it’s a quick and fun read and even though there were a little too many sh*ts and f*cks and other inappropriate words according to my personal taste (I’m more of a poetic descriptions kinda gal), I’m sure this book (especially Red’s way of paying attention to and caring for Chloe) will hold a place in my heart for quite a while.

Very cute and enjoyable, if at times a little dull.

I liked reading this contemporary romance novel. I liked the diverse characters and how the author avoided a lot of romance novel cliches that normally annoy me in the genre. The characters were loveable and easy to route for. It was a bit steamier than what I usually enjoy, but it was well done and perfect for readers that enjoy their romance on the steamy side. I will definite read more of the Brown Sisters books when I am in the mood for a rom-com romance.
