Spoiler Alert by Olivia Dade

funny lighthearted medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

Things I liked: 
  • plus size main character - April in general was super cool and inspirational and felt fully developed outside of her relationship. 
  • Supporting characters and friendships were funny and loveable
  • Love for fandom - it was very cool having the ao3 snippets and stuff throughout the story and the respect and detail given to friendships/communities in fandom was lovely. 

Things I didn't enjoy: 
  • Deception/miscommunication being the main conflict of the story and then feeling like it was resolved Without much growth from the side of the deceiver. 
  • A bit of suspension of disbelief required in many cases 
  • Pacing was a little off, latter half felt a bit slow

Overall I enjoyed this book and it was a quick fun read with some great characters!
