Wish You Were Her by Elle McNicoll
4.0

Thank you to Netgalley for an e-arc of this book. All opinions are my own.

The autistic representation in Elle McNicoll's books are brilliant!
 In this one, I particularly loved the both of the main characters were autistic. We need more autistic love stories.
Allegra was a strong fmc who learned to unmask more and more over the course of the book, along with Jonah. It was great how they grew both as a couple and individuals. I loved being in Lake Pristine again, the new setting of the bookshop and the book festival. Also, it was great seeing characters from the previous book return and to see what they have been up to. 
The ending felt a bit rushed as there was a big buildup, but still a great read that I highly recommend.
