4 stars overall, with a 4.5 star romance rating, for Something to Talk About! A cute, silly, slow burn sapphic romance that had me giggling and kicking my feet the whole way through. My only complaint was that the burn was soooo slow that you only get to savor the result at the very very end. That being said, the book is "non-spicy", aka doesn't include anything sexual, until the last 20 or so pages. This makes it a good book for a number of audiences, but for readers looking for something smuttier, they may be disappointed.
I found the characters to be interesting, relatable, and entertaining. I enjoyed not only their perspectives, but the perspectives of their closest confidantes as well. I also appreciated the dual POV so that the reader can be inside both main characters' heads, getting a bigger picture idea of the dynamic between the two instead of just one of their overthinking internal monologues, hehe.
I was delighted by this book! I will be recommending it :)
