4.0

I finished this in less than 24 hours. Heavily enjoyed it—enemies to lovers, close familial relationships, wacky hijinks,etc— but there were some iffy moments. Anthony had some weird sexist vibes sometimes and the wedding night was just not really it for me. A lot of the conflicts in this book felt really contrived, but I sympathized with the characters enough to enjoy the culmination of the conflicts.

Content Warnings

Graphic: Death of parent

Moderate: Misogyny, Sexual content, and Grief

Minor: Bullying and Fatphobia

There are a lot of thoughts, while not treated with a lot of weight, related to self-image and sibling comparison, that might be relatable for many, or might be annoying depending on if you understand with heroines with self-image issues. There are a fair amount of thoughts on mortality, too. If that bothers you, it could be upsetting even if its not necessarily a heavy focus.
