This was so cute and well-written, I picked it up expecting a kind of generic YA romance but it got surprisingly deep. If you're the type to get easily annoyed at flawed characters, though, this probably isn't for you (minor spoilers: the main character is snappy with her mom at first, easily gets distracted at work thinking about her love life, and of course communication is not her strong suit ). The main character's flaws make sense though with her backstory and as someone who's gone through similar struggles, I related to her a lot (also nearly cried at some points and had to message my partner like "OMG I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH"). Also I love that her and her love interest are both nerds about different science subjects.
Overall, really well-written and will probably live rent-free in my head for a while to be honest, haha. Highly recommend reading it if you have the chance!
