Please read this review with that audio clip of Lady Gaga in the background, "...brilliant, incredible, amazing, show-stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before..."

𝗗𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗠 𝗢𝗡 is like no contemporary romance that I've ever read before, with a totally fresh premise that hooked me from page one. And the premise never feels gimmicky or forced.

Cass is a wonderful female lead. She is smart, hard-working, relatable, and so damn likable. I adored her. I loved her best friend and their supportive friendship! 

I can't expound on the male lead and how much I love him without spoilers so, let me just say, I ADORE HIM SO HARD. You will too.

Because I'm a stingy-star-bitch, I took off half a star from my rating because the steamy scene in this book felt thrown in as an afterthought in a very odd place in the book (and you KNOW I love a steamy scene). It felt like a box to be checked instead of a natural part of the narrative. 

But, you know, feel feee to ignore that minor setback because 𝗗𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗠 𝗢𝗡 should absolutely be next on your TBR. It is original, thoughtful, sweet, swoony, unpredictable, and I freaking loved it.
