Thoughts 💭
Lily and Rupert were very much the cutest. I loved the way they so easily drew the line in the sand. Both sides were aware of where they stood, and how it didn’t change the dynamic of their budding relationship. I like how the readers got to see a side to all the side characters. We got to formulate opinions on the characters, and even grow attached to some of them. I really did have a soft spot for Mr.Devi, he was the sweetest! Books and Banter is an awesome name for a coffee shop! The foundation and build up of Lily and Rupert’s romance was different from most Romance novels that I’ve read. They were honest, understood each other's passions and commitments. It was delightfully refreshing. I felt that without realising it, they respectfully put each other first. The maturity they had for one another is something I don’t typically see in romance novels.
