This is the lighthearted queer Asian YA romcom that is perfect when you need a mental health boost. Super fast read and an adorable story.

AHHH. I loved it! I think it was such a cute and heartwarming story. I loved Dylan and his motivations and immediately loved him and Theo together. The slow burn was real and then tension between them was !!! 
I loved the conflicts and how both Dylan and Theo had to resolve issues, instead of it just being a one sided conflict. It really makes the story more realistic and interesting.
Honestly i’m sure there are flaws im forgetting to bring up, but the book just made me happy! I looked forward to reading it and it left me feeling cozy and giggly and that’s what really matters! My only wish was that it was longer, I wanted to stay with the characters more.
My favorite quote: 

“You didn’t give me a fraction of what I have, Dylan.” His voice cracks a little. “You gave me a whole missing piece.”
