Wow wow wow. I read this in 2 hours and fittingly, am in Canada where the book is set.
In a silly, lighthearted way, I loved this. This was the first book I’ve read in a looooooong time that made me feel genuine butterflies and giggle like an idiot. Was it completely realistic or practical (such as the single mom affording private school for her kids while just owning a bakery, or 2 kids being forced to stay at school for hours after class to do manual labor)? No, of course not. But was it an adorable slow burn that made me feel things and didn’t have idiotic MCs? YES. I wish Julius was more developed with his background, and we got more scenes after they were together, but overall loved this book.
