I see what people are saying about the way the fake dating situation starts with the potentially questionable kiss being problematic. Though I think the author addresses it more than her criticizers give credit for. 

This book requires you to put up with some pretty insufferable choices on the main characters side.
the choice to not own up to liking Adam and Tom’s shittiness when she first has the chance is so frustrating. And also her willful ignorance to believing adam might like her back all in the name of science?! No. Just communicate. You’re adults.


I loved the addition of the friends. That got me through. 

The smut scene what’s weirdly possessive on Adam’s part and that threw me off too.
