This was so fun. I read this book in about a day and while it was peak millennial in its pop culture references and phrases, it worked for me instead of taking me out of the story. 

I forgive Alexandria for naming her FMC Truly, now that I know the names origin, but the theater references went a little too hard for me 😂

I loved the spice in this book and how Colin basically worshiped at the alter of Truky. Their relationship was so sweet and he was so steadfast and patient in the midst of the turmoil she was going through. Don’t we all want a partner like that to rely on!? 

I wasn’t crazy about the parent trap situation—and it would have loved to have the parents explain themselves and their separation a little more. Especially with it being a major factor in the plot.
