4.0

The plot relied heavily on the miscommunication trope but it wasn’t annoying bc of the dual POV. Great to read a romcom with  realistic autism rep in the FMC! Michael was a great MMC, super supportive of Stella but also very flawed himself. I feel like his dad’s drama was a little anticlimactic though… could have been a bigger storyline (that could have been why Stella’s dad didn’t like him?) especially bc it was Michael’s main issue. My biggest issue with the book though is that the story felt a little rushed at times and  like it was jumping around week to week. Maybe it’s because I’m used to 500+ page books, but I wanted more from the plot.
