Okay, twist my arm, I loved this book. I still have happy tears in my eyes. The hilarious premise of a “reality” fairy tale dating show is bolstered by an incredible cast of characters, asexual and queer representation across numerous spectrums and identities, a tribute to platonic love, and a wonderfully honest portrayal of mental illness, mental health, and learning to love yourself. Read it right away, thank me later
