I JUST LOVED THIS BOOK SO MUCH.
Not only is it my first 5 ⭐ rom-com but it is also my first 5 ⭐ adult queer romance.
I laughed, I giggled and I cried numerous times.
I would do anything for Astrid and Jordan, as individuals or a couple 🥺
Astrid healed my mommy issued ass so much.
I didn't think Jordan was my type by the cover but I have seen fan casts and now I'm obsessed with soft butches 😍😍
Also the spice was 🤌🏻🔥🔥

This one’s for the tarot gays.

Jordan and Astrid were cute. I liked the slow-burn enemies to friends to lovers. My biggest struggle is that what I 
most liked about Delilah’s story was the unpacking of her past and family. This one is more romance focused (which is fair; it is a romance), and the ‘baggage’ Astrid and Jordan each have to work through was leas interesting to me. I was also disappointed that Astrid was the only one that had to take accountability.

4.5 rounded up

Liked the sequel more than Delilah's story, which slightly shocked me. The enimes to lovers and deep dive into each main characters life were two big selling points.

I just didn’t care about anything that was going on! I thought the premise was really interesting and unique but the author failed to make me care whatsoever about any of the characters. A lot of the drama seemed forced and self invented.
