Double Booked by Lily Lindon

2.0

Not really sure how to feel about this book - it made me stressed and anxious, so kudos for getting a physical reaction, but I do wonder if I should have just dnf'd. I saw it described as a romcom - I definitely would not call it that. Its coming out story, perhaps not in the healthiest way in my opinion - but I suppose if you look at it as not a sunshine and rainbows kind of romance (that I was expecting with the guise of romcom) it entails all the uncertainty and messiness of trying to figure out who you are in your mid-twenties. There is an obsession rather than a romance, subterfuge and sneaking around in another that sat uncomfortably with me, and one that just weirded me out that it even got that far (but then maybe that's the ace in me).
