It’s a predictable cute story, I liked the nerdy vibes and I love sunshine and grumpy tropes but the miscommunication was frustrating. The awareness that it is a fake dating trope was also refreshing.
However I did like that their relationship didn’t scream toxic. The biggest problem really was the lack of communication at times.
Also if my friend or partner was a complete asshole. I‘d like to know about that. I don’t know why people always want to cover up for them. 

Olive is most likely Demisexual. It wasn’t explicitly named but she is clearly described like that.

I’ve read that it was originally a Reylo fanfiction and I definitely see it 😂 somehow it made it even more entertaining for me. It felt like finding Easter eggs.  Now I feel like reading Reylo Fanfics again.
