Two Can Play by Ali Hazelwood

I don't know why I expected this to be any different from the rest of Hazelwood's backlist, but it's literally the same story with a different font.

Here We Go Again by Alison Cochrun

5.0

Using famous queer people as curses aside, I really enjoyed this book. It's a heavier book than Cochrun's first two books, but has the same delightful humor.

I don't know how to feel about this book. It was okay?? I don't really see why people are so obsessed with it. Will I continue? Probably. But it's eh.

I absolutely adore Aled! He needs to be protected at all costs. It's very clear his mom is mentally ill and abusive. This book gives a lot of context to Aled's character if you've only read Heartatopper.
