A review by sunnys_library
Love and Other Words by Christina Lauren

3.0

Unfortunately I did not quite enjoy this book. I was a bit disappointed because I loved to see best friends to lovers trope and reuniting in the future after time apart etc. However, the only two strong emotions I got from this was cringeness and sadness

the scene of the dad, you know

. Other than that, not much love or cuteness,  for me. I felt that the scenes as teenagers were very cringe! I did not want to read and read more about teenagers exploring each other. The dialogue was cringey too. The reason for the miscommunication was understandable but not for the 11 years that it accounted for. Also, the side partners (their exes) were way too easy and understanding of the situation it felt very unrealistic. 

I had more times during the book where I was eye rolling... Unfortunately! Also, am I the only one that felt that the MMC was a bit icky? Not only as a teenager but as an adult! Anyone else???
