Well developed and diverse cast, that was not your typical romcom. I loved this group of friends and the SSC. Often club-type formats can be overwrought, and I just totally appreciated what the author put together. I was so invested in the whole group!

good romance between childhood crushes that meet on a flight and end up with them working together. I loved that she had such a great support group of friends and that she found love. She is bisexual black Jewish woman who found love with her friend. . Great heat and romance

I stopped at 7% in. I found myself unable to focus. I wanted to like it, based on the premise, but the writing style didn't hook me. I wanted it to be cleaner and more focused.
Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for the ARC.

I’m so sad I DNF’d this one!!! The writing was not engaging at all. I am Jewish and was so excited for the representation in this book. It just feel flat for me. 50% of the way through and I found myself wanted to skip ahead. Maybe I just don’t enjoy second chance romances? Maybe it is because the “issue” from their childhood didn’t make sense?

This is kind of a second chance story between Daniel and Liyah, who met when they were teenagers, were best friends, and then had a falling out.
They meet again fourteen years later and are forced to work together on a project, and feelings start developing, first friendship and then something more.
I felt like some parts of the story were too forced, trying to be smart and appealing to a certain kind of reader instead of all readers at large. Nevertheless, it kept me interested and I read to the end.
Sex and language.
I received a copy from the publisher through NetGalley and this is my honest opinion.

I loved this book so much! And don't be fooled by the beautiful cartoon cover, it was a deep romance story which such wonderful representation. I also really enjoyed the reverse frumpy sunshine vibes - I find myself to be more like Liyah and it was wonderful to be able to read from her perspective.

I loved the diversity in this one. Queer characters, characters of color, Jewish characters, fat characters. Any book that provides representation like that is important to me. Also, the support group scenes were amazing. I enjoyed getting to learn so much about the characters. A big pull for me in anything I read is well-developed characters, and I feel that Thank You for Sharing does an excellent job showing us who everyone is.
I read this one in one sitting, completely investing in the enemies to lovers trope that played out, and I truly appreciate that the book was so considerate of its readers by sharing respectful warnings at the beginning for the content that is within its pages.
Thanks to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for an arc of this book!

I wasn't sure if I would like this book. It did start out a little slow, but once I got into it, it was very good. The book made me feel for the characters like I was right there with them. I will look for others by this author! I would definitely recommend this book.

Liyah and Daniel meet on a plane, but something is familiar. They realize they met each other at a summer camp years prior, and things ended on a bad note. Liyah is a skeptical soul who can hold a grudge like no other. Daniel is a guy trying to make amends. Their paths cross again when they are assigned to work together, and the tension (and chemistry) builds.
Thank you St Martin’s and Net Galley for this ARC! I enjoyed the characters and they all had something to bring to the table. Characters we can all relate to; there’s a typical playboy, a blunt best friend everyone needs, and a coworker turned close friend to name a few. Therapy is discussed throughout the novel and I enjoyed how open the characters were with their mental health. *sexual assault is mentioned

This was a quick, enjoyable romance to read! I don’t think I’ve ever read a book featuring biracial Jewish characters, so I appreciated the fact that the story was told from both Daniel and Liyah’s POV. I think the difficult topics in this book were handled with care, and that the author’s own identity added to the authenticity of the story.

4.75 stars
Oh my gods, this book was such a breath of fresh air. I don't know what about it busted me out of my reading slump other than it was so well written and well developed.
This book sucked me in from the very first page and kept me interested the whole way through! Normally with books I get kind of bored or too comfortable where I can predict where it's going. With this book it didn't even occur to me to auto-predict the next set of text because I was too busy enjoying myself.
Liyah was such a badass and so very realistic that it was easy to connect to her and become invested in her story but then the same goes for Daniel! This book had a lot of diversity and mature themes that felt very well done and were extremely true to life, the author did an excellent job incorporating a variety of life experiences in an organic way.
I just really love this book a lot. I am so excited for the release!
Thank you Netgalley for providing a copy of this ebook in exchange for an honest review.

Thanks to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for an arc of this book. Below is my honest review.
Liyah is late for her flight, hangry, and definitely relieved to find her seat. She and her seat mate Daniel did not get along. Daniel’s attempt at flirting was a total disaster, and we learn that Liyah and Daniel went to camp together when they were preteens. He recognized her first, and right as they are deplaning, she made the connection and was less than enthused. Things at camp didn’t end on a good note.
Liyah’s goal is to be promoted to curator at her museum. The new exhibits won’t cut it for bringing in guests, so she has to work with a newly hired marketing person to increase membership, especially amongst millennials. And who is the marketing person? Just guess. One guess. Did you get it? I’m not telling! Spoilers!
Who is the mystery marketing expert? Will Liyah get the promotion? Will she see Daniel again? What happened at camp so many years ago?
Okay, this one had several hits and a few misses for me. The support group, especially the minutes? Absolutely my favorite part. I liked there was no big kerfuffle about Neen being nonbinary. They just were and it was amazing. Siobhan, Jordan, and Alex rounded out an astounding crew of secondary characters. There were characters of color, Jewish characters, queer characters, fat characters, and more. The diversity was outstanding. And, I learned a few new things! For example, I knew the basics about shiva, but I didn’t realize shiva meant seven. Learning new things in books always makes me smile.
Unfortunately, I felt some parts of the story dragged on a bit. And, there were some scenes, one of which was even during the support group, that I didn’t personally enjoy. It might just be me, though. So take that with a grain of salt.
Overall, I am giving it four stars. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to read a childhood friends to enemies to lovers trope, with characters who are TIRED but muddling along. The author provided trigger warnings at the beginning of the book. Please read with care but know, imho, the warned content was handled with the utmost respect and care.

THANK YOU FOR SHARING had me invested from first page to the very last - a beautifully real love story. I always love a second chance with dual point of view, and the banter, tension, chemistry and love between Daniel and Liyah was everything I could hope for! I love both of these relatable and sensitive characters and love them for each other. Daniel's softness to Liyah's prickliness. I certainly fell in love with Daniel well before Liyah knew she did. I mean, asking if Liyah wants him to kiss her and thanking her for trusting him - man after my own heart!
Liyah, who had already lost trust in Daniel fourteen years ago and after a traumatic experience with someone else, loses trust in most people, relationships in general, and doubts the idea that she is even lovable due to her grouchiness and "brokenness." To see what it takes Daniel to navigate a relationship with Liyah and how responsible he is in their relationship was quite beautiful to see. And to see that it was Liyah's grouchiness, her being her "unlovable" self that was what Daniel fell in love. And yes Liyah is stubborn, but she has her reasons. To see how much she evolves and grows throughout the story was lovely to witness.
Very strong character development. I even enjoyed all the supporting characters, which hardly ever happens. If only everyone in the world had a Kayla or Neen in their lives to help people with their feelings!
This book addresses trauma, relationships, consent, and mental/emotional health in such a tasteful, powerful way that I feel this book should be a required reading for teenagers in school!! What a remarkable debut for this author and can't wait to see what this author does next!
Thank you to St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Interesting romantic romp with some unusual curves thrown in. Nice nod to diversity from a few different angles, browsing religious, racial, gender, and sexual diversity not only in context but discussed among the players. Female lead was a little too stubborn and not as open as everyone else, which was a little frustrating rather than providing the intended push/pull.

Thank you to NetGalley for the free copy of Thank You for Sharing. All thoughts are my own.
I really enjoyed the parts written for Daniel's POV. I found Liyah's to be rather annoying, especially with all of the parentheses. The POV is already focused on her, and I thought that was really unnecessary and overdone, given it happened several times in each chapter. With that said, I do think this was a good debut novel. It was an easy read and I managed to get through it in one sitting. It's 100% the definition of a slow burn, which I thought was well done. Usually I find slow burns drawn out to the point of ridiculousness. The trauma was handled in a delicate and sensitive manner and I think people will be happy with that.
Representation is hard to come by, especially when it comes to mixed ethnicities. I think people will appreciate how that's depicted here as well.
I don't particularly like books written in third person present tense, but that's my own personal gripe and doesn't affect my review at all.
Over all, great job to this author.
