Overall Thoughts:
⁕ Contemporary romance novels scare me because I have this (probably false) idea that they will be unbearably cheesy. Thankfully, that was not the case with this book. It is super cute, but also well-balanced with political drama, identity exploration, non-romantic relationship development, and so much more.
⁕ The character development of Alex is SO well written. My heart ached for him and soared for him.
⁕ The chapters are short and nearly all of them end on cliffhangers, making the book impossible to put down. I don’t recommend starting unless you have the time to read it in one full sitting 😂
