As someone well versed in internet culture and the worlds of gaming, having a video game streamer boyfriend sounds like a damn dream and this book was my chance to enjoy that.

I commend the author on connecting important narratives of family and expectations, friendship, and senses of loss into a lighthearted story about frenemies turned lovers. Okay, but I had never seen the execution of frenemies to lovers and I quite liked it. Unique twists like that will always get my attention.

However, I found myself waiting for the big moments of the story with a grand gesture that would have me swooning. There weren't any and that's what makes a romance something I can't help but follow. So, Lily and Tobin were so cute and I was waiting for something to take them to the next level, but they couldn't defeat the final boss: my high expectations.
