 -super cute; a sapphic, second chance AND forced proximity romance
-a lil spicy, could've been spicier. i mean, you had an entire collection of vibrators at your disposal and you didn't use them once?? UNREALISTIC
-literally every problem could have been avoided if they would have just talked it out 11 years ago, but i like that they addressed that in the book and even said that they wouldn't have been in the best place for it then
-so many cheesy and adorable little touches, like the secret NOTE IN THE POCKET STOP IT
-felt like it addressed a lot of things really well, and i identified with SO many points, especially the one where one of the MCs talks about already being a whole person, and that needing someone to complete you is ridiculous
-i might have teared up a few times, who is surprised bc it's not me
-one piece of advice a character gave to an MC will probably stick with me forever- "if you don't reckon with your feelings, sooner or later your feelings are going to reckon with you" and if that ain't the truth y'all
-bummed i didn't realize there were two to read before but i'm gunna have to go and read them nowwwww
-got a lil repetitive at times between the two MCs and their similar inner monologues but they didn't take me out of it or anything
