4.5/5 I actually absolutely loved that. I officially declare myself a Sophie Gonzales fan. Honest one of the best parts i feel was ollie’s internal monologues he’s so real, we r one actually. i’m too tired and sleep deprived to make an actual review so besos

oh my god yall, this book!! it’s so amazing, i’ll definitely be re-reading over summer. for the most part it’s a lighthearted, hopeful read, but there are a few really sad bits - so you’ve been warned!! seriously tho, this book has my whole hear. gay and bi representation, main character w pcos, real-life outcomes - this book has it all. i’ve got my fingers crossed for a sequel 🫶

very cliche, which isn’t necessarily bad, but in this case i wasn’t a big fan. modern day references, hard to read dialogue because of pure cringe and a story that wasn’t all that interesting. twas alright but i’m not sure i’ll read it again.

This is now my third read and I still love this book so much. I think what really makes it special to me is Ollie. I love how he behaves, how he is written and how he talks; especially his "emo" aesthetic makes him just pretty relatable to me, I think. 

This book is a fast, mostly light-hearted read and yet it still touches on darker topics, but in a way that I can really appreciate.

Also, the prequel-story of how they met is just so unbelievably cute!
