Okay this book was great and I really enjoyed reading it. Still: Why did no one warn me how much smut there would be!? I did not expect that at all. The relationship was cute and they had some cute banter. One of my favourite parts about this book was the representation. Issues like class, chronic illness and toxic relationships are tackled really well and I loved reading about it. The characters were really flushed out but I personally just didn't feel the chemistry. I don't know why but I just didn't feel it that much. Also the conflict in the end felt rushed and just a bit off.

I wanted to love this book and I did love a huge part of it but I just didn't completely fall in love with it. It might just not be the right time for me though. I would definitely reread it at some point in the future. But I would probably read it and not listen to the audiobook like I did this time. I think that actually took away a bit from my reading experience. I'm a big audiobook fan but I didn't like the voice and it just felt strange.

I am really excited to read about the other Brown sisters though. Even though they are a quite big part of Chloes life, they are not really important for the story so I'm excited to learn more about them.

All in all this was a quick and fun read and has so many things I loved. If you like representation and people being absolutely in love with each other - this one is for you.
