I had a good time! Their relationship moved a little fast and wasn’t really shown as much as told to the reader, making it a bit difficult to understand why they like each other, we just know that they do. I remember feeling a little shocked they were already at I love you’s. But apart from that, sweet book and got the job done. The breakup was a bit convoluted imo, especially because it was clear they wanted to get back together and no one was saying they needed to stay apart forever, but whatevs. Victoria’s brother was a grade A bitch. A little insta-adoration when they first meet but the book builds them up.
