Rating: 5⭐️
Chloe did her big one when she wrote these men but I think Axel might be the man for me. I loved seeing him throughout the story constantly try to push past his autism and general stand-offishness to show Rooney what she meant to him. Rooney is also so much like me it’s wonderful. From our shared intestinal issues to our warmth to our eager, excited, competitive nature, I was eating it all up and it meant a lot to me seeing a character who I could relate to find love.
I don’t see IBS/IBD written in as many chronic illness fiction, and even less so romantic fiction, but this was so so so well-written. In fact I got teary-eyed for the moments where she struggled because I know that pain and frustration. The details, inner dialogue, worries, insecurities were all there and felt like my loved experience and I’m grateful.
