I like the prompt of the book but idk..
I guess they are kinda cute. Didn't like a lot of the things that happened though. (Most of my other thoughts are spoilery
I hate how the main character is CONSTANTLY talking about how "unlucky" she is and how perfet her sister is and that she just can't help it .... She is complaining so much and I think she would just be such a uncomfortable person to be around.
I don't like the "it was all just a misunderstanding" trope, I HATE it when people who tell the truth are not believed and I don't especially love it when people constantly lie "because they have no other choice".
I don't think calling someone by a wrong name multiple times as a joke is cute.
Also I hate he didn't believe her it makes me so angry and she forgave him way to easily.
The honeymoon was cute but also quite a trainwrack. I don't think I could date someone who supports their cheating brother.
There were some sweet scenes but all in all it was ruined for me by their siblings relationship. It had such a big impact on theirs.
