Honestly plot line wasn’t even bad. The story was cute and lighthearted without any major conflict between the two characters so it was an easy wholesome read in that sense. The writing was just absolutely trash and kept taking me out of the story. The amount of times the exact same phrase was used over and over again in a single scene, the way multiple things and moments were described the same way as another, the AMOUNT OF TIMES THE FMCS LIPS “rolled between her teeth” I can’t. It was absurd. I also didn’t like the fact that ch 27 existed at all. Literally zero need for it. Made me feel like I was rage reading from then on because of how unnecessary that entire section was. You could read the whole book without EVER NEEDING IT AND WOULDN'T MISS A THING. There’s also imo a huge plot hole when it comes to Chad but whatever. Not the worst book I’ve read but definitely does nothing for the pregnancy trope
