Im just not sure the characters were believable enough for me. But it was a good YA book, i imagine a younger queer reader would really enjoy it

I loved this book, I really really did but I didn't give it 5 stars for the things I'm going to explain.
Yet, it's totally worth to give chance in my opinion, it not a perfect book, but its funny and light to read. It's really nice if you are looking for something to enjoy
When I started it, I threw me off it was first pov (I hate it) but it didn't stop me.
The first thing I noticed was the writing, it was nice and easy to follow along.
It wasn't so hard to differentiate the main characters speeches.
I honestly find it hard to say good things because I enjoyed it a lot and I don't know how to put them into words. I just remembered having to stop reading to compose myself because of how much I was smiling.
Yet, I'll point out a some stuff that I didn't enjoy anyways.
- I felt some things were left undone or rushed, for example Emma feelings of unworthiness. They were mentioned a lot as internal thought but she barely talked about them. It seems like she never got ride of the idea she wasn't enough and the book ended. Maybe it was part of the plan, idk.
- I have conflicted feelings about Sophia accepting being in a relationship after despiting the idea so much. Through all the book we see how much she hates love (a bit forced to my opinion), she lost a friend to it and suddenly she got it bad for a girl to step over her ideas? I mean, she learns and understand loves it's not always meant to end tragic but I would like if they explored more the subject of the disgust towards dating.
- The make up after the fighting, felt poor (but at the same time realistic)
- now my biggest complain.... It ended too quickly (not rushed), I was at 97,5% and they still got to get together. It was an understatement to say I was in distress. I wish they showed us more of their relationship as a couple like they did with the side-couples.
Overall I enjoyed it, a lot.
I ended it in 6 hours (2 days). I feel really proud of myself.
I hope my next reading it's like this one.

This was a sweet and easy read! I loved the enemies to lovers romance from Emma and Sophia and how they both had their own struggles. I can recommend this book if you want a quick sapphic read which makes you giggle and kick your feet.
