About That Kiss by Harper Bliss

3.0

This was a sweet and mostly lighthearted romance. I enjoyed it but it didn’t quite have that extra thing for me. I enjoyed both main characters, their dynamic was lovely, and I always enjoy the acting/Hollywood trope. What I didn’t love was how often ida kept saying not coming out for so much of her life meant she didn’t have enough self respect——that’s some bullshit. Your sexuality is no one’s business but your own, and that doesn’t at all mean you don’t respect yourself if you never choose share that with anyone. I dunno I don’t think that was the overall message trying to be pushed or anything, but some variation of that came up a few times and it really rubbed me the wrong way. All in all, this was a fun lighthearted romance with impeccable narration.
