I'm really glad that I continued this series. The first book left a lot to be desired, but this one was truly enjoyable. It's sweet and funny, the characters are well-developed and have great chemistry.

This book is so sweet and fluffy but it has surprising depth too. I fell in love with all of the characters and I couldn't put it down. I read it in less than a day. It's a perfect piece of romantic escapism. Loved it.

I started this series because I enjoyed the show and now I'm honestly not sure how they made a compelling show out of this book. Somehow it reads more like fanfic of the show despite being the original source material.
