Here's me hiding because I'm in the minority.

Sweet heavens, that was horrible. You know, here I was just thinking that some books really do deserve the hype, but this one? Nope. No, thank you. I couldn't take it anymore. I tried to last but I could only make it halfway through--and that's just me reading the dialogue parts because I'm so tired of being inside Lina's head. Why? Why do we have to overthink and overanalyze every excruciating thought and detail, huh? WHY?!
I am pretty sure Aaron Blackford is everybody's dream guy at the moment, but WHY? He's so boring. I mean... oh good god. I could not even feel the tension between them. I could not feel the chemistry. There's nothing. Catalina is so busy denying feelings that it did not occur to her why this man was suddenly offering to come with her to her sister's wedding? He likes you but of course!
Don't even get me started on the wedding. Listen, I came here for the fake-dating trope in a wedding. Okay? That's the selling point of this book. But I reached 50% and the wedding shenanigans have not even started.
What I would like to point out is that Catalina has some feministic views about women in workplaces. So there's something that was actually worth reading about here.
