I read this book in a few hours - it was so cute and truly addictive. I am a hopeless romantic and this book was so girlie and adorable. I loved the Taylor Swift references and how smart this book was about commenting on the rom-com/ enemies to lovers troupe while executing it so well. It felt almost like a playful mock of the genre, yet still such a well written romance. She lost me a little with the whole cult thing, but other than that a super fun summer read!
