Love & Other Disasters
by Anita Kelly
I enjoyed this one a lot. It's pretty low on the conflict/angst, though there are some transphobic side characters, it's totally more of a sweet queer romance story.
The conflict parts felt a little bit underwhelming, like there weren't a whole lot of challenges the relationship had to go through, which isn't a bad thing but you'd have to be in the mood for something like that. I think especially the difference in class/financial situation that was introduced was never properly talked about between the MCs so the epilogue didn't land quite right.
It made me smile a lot, the relationship dynamics were good, and I read it fast despite still kinda being in reading slunp territory.
I also wish the side characters were more developped and we saw more friendships because it felt like the MCs didn't have many people around them except for the LI and their family which I always find a little sad, and I always love some good friendships, but it's like a personal taste thing more than a flaw of the book itself.
