i really liked this book. it is clear that the author put a lot of thought into making the cast of characters diverse, especially regarding their sexual and gender identities.

i enjoyed reading about aroace characters and nonbinary folks in particular because they typically don't get that much representation in romance novels.

however, the plot felt a little too predictable at certain points, or things were too conveniently arranged before they happened, which was a bit unbelievable to me and seemed like big fat plot armor.
