I really appreciated just how mature this romance was. It was a breath of fresh air in that regard. I really loved how the characters were consistent and it didn't feel like there was any random plot points shoved in for the sake of mess/drama. The disability representation and the handling of it, I'm guessing especially because the author identifies with her main character, was handled expertly.

However, the book was missing a lil' summin' summin' for me. I'm not sure what form that would taken but I didn't get swept up in this love story or get as emotionally invested as I would have liked. I got to the end and thought: "Well, I knew that would happen and that was nice" and that was that!
