I picked up this book because my bestfriend told me I needed a romance book to get out of my slump. I fully expected to be disappointed in this book but boy was I wrong.
This book is the such a perfect romance. There was no third act break up and it had unique conflict. Along with there was very little miscommunication, which I was very happy about. And even tho this book is a little smutty Russ and Rory’s relationship never felt super lustful.
The chapters in this book were AMAZING. There wasn’t a single character I disliked, other than Rory’s dad obvi. I love LOVE the new editions of Rory, Emila and Xander. I see myself so much in Rory and was able to connect with her on such a deep level. Also, Xander was the funniest character ever, he always had me cackling, and I really hope to see more of him in the other books. Other thing I enjoyed is Russ’ dad’s character development. It meant a lot to me that the novel displayed both the bad side and the recovery of addiction.
This is such a random thing but I LOVE all the references this book made. It was AMAZING. There wasn’t Hamilton, Formula 1, Beetlejuice, and so much more.
Lastly, I enjoyed the epilogue so much. It was adorable seeing how the plans they made earlier in the book come true, and the fact that their friend group stuck together. Over all, this book was the perfect romance and I’m so happy I read it.
