As of lately, I have been getting back into romances as they provide a cozy mean of escape, but I have noticed that oftentimes many books suggested by booktok or similar, although furnished with good concepts, in the actual writing lack much. In this case, specifically, I felt like there were so many things that made little sense (e.g.: him misunderstanding the state of her situation or her first saying that she is unsure who passed the genre and then confirming it runs through her mother). Although I appreciate what the author has tried to do on the SLA side, I felt like there were so many more themes that could be further developed and discussed, instead of being brushed to the end and magically resolved with a magical wand.
The chemistry between the two characters, to me, lacked; it felt very forced and although I know that there's certainly a level of escapism also in this, I felt like it made little sense for them to act so cozy after barely a few pages. I don't know whether, still, that's more my preference or something else. Either way if you are into a slow burn, this isn't the book for you.
Also another thing I didn't fully understand was the fact that this woman clearly doesn't have a clue how YouTube and influencers work and on the long run it just added to the ridiculousness and absence of sense all rooted around the whole situation.
A cute book, but certainly one of the worst romances that I read since getting back in the genre.
