I'm on a romance roll here. I really enjoyed the plot and the additional relationships (friendships and sibling-relationships) in this book compared to the romance novels I've read recently. It helped flesh out the characters more, and make the romance character tropes less obvious. I thought the book was funnier too, just from the absolute absurdity of some of the situations that the characters found themselves in. However, certain details (shoutouts to a certain fantasy series and stereotypical "gay best friend") make this book seem more dated, even though it was published in 2019.
