Yk what this love story was actually so sweet and I love the queerification of the bachelor however I was sooooo icked by the didactic style -overtly, repeatedly educating readers about the characters identities (first gen, depression, neurodiversity, OCD, panic disorder, queer, demisexual, etc yes these are all just the 2 main characters) and also about other stuff that they felt like preaching about, like a very tumblr core sexuality and mental health crash course
And they do it so often š every time I started to get into the story they pulled me right out of it with asexuality 101 or something like that
