A book about friends to lovers, slow-burn and with a good dose of political activism. He falls in love first, she doesn't realise it. Jamie has been really sweet to read as he always thinks everything through in detail and really is a green flag. The book was written by the two authors in reference to the 2016 US presidential election and is still (unfortunately) a relevant depiction of the situation in America today. I can therefore only recommend everyone to read the story and take the content to heart. Because no matter where you live, when the next elections are in your country or how old you are: you can make a difference.  Become politically active, engage with the issues and listen. Exchange ideas with other people, look beyond borders. Because we all want to live in a peaceful world in the future. In my opinion, the book encourages this.
