This was the perfect fluffy feel good book for me. The characters were relatable while still being romcom and the tropes were done well and still fresh enough to be unique. Overall, I loved it. It made me laugh aloud which is one of my favorite things in a story.

I did find myself wishing we got more descriptive tidbits of the characters. Even the leads seemed to only get one mention of hair color and eye color and that was it. I usually appreciate a couple drops of “tucked a blonde curl behind her ear” or “his blue eyes glinted” type of detail to make them feel like real people in my mind.
