This book was so sweet. Honestly, that’s the only way to describe it. I’d die for my baby Leo ❤️

I’ve seen a few people mention that they found it boring, but I couldn’t disagree more, which actually surprised me since I usually gravitate toward angst and drama.
The lack of drama, though, was really refreshing and, in my opinion, perfectly suited to the story. 

It started off pretty fast-paced, then slowed down just enough to feel cozy without dragging which helped to keep my attention!

Friends-to-lovers is honestly a trope to die for, and this book did it justice.

If you’re looking for a fluffy, slice of life friends-to-lovers story with great anxiety representation, this is definitely the book for you. 

There’s no action, no high stakes conflict, but the characters were so endearing that I never once felt bored. Plus, it’s short enough to make a perfect palate cleanser between heavier reads!
