I tried 12 times to read this book and I have not been able to get through it. Dnf at 40% and I will not bash it on my socials because it is not fair to the author

TOO FREAKING CUTE! I loved this sweet story and all of these characters! The romance was great and I truly enjoyed the read.

such a cute story, I really enjoyed it!
Thank you to the author, publisher, and netgalley for this review copy.

This was so freaking cute! I really appreciated the dual point of view from the mcs. I liked the mystery feel that it had. I loved the romance, I’m always a fan of enemies to lovers and when he falls first. I think my only complaint is that the climax of the story seemed a little extreme and forced and not realistic. Still great overall. I would recommend!

It was honestly a cute book but I don’t know why, I just didn’t vibe with it. It was super cute though!

Autumn has a tragic past, can she bring herself out of it? Elijah needs a place to live, but will he get too wrapped in old family drama to find a place?
This book was so sweet! I was able to put myself in the characters positions and feel what they felt. It was well written, and I enjoyed the relationship development between the two. With a twist, that I was not expecting, it makes it more interesting. Not just another romance novel! I enjoyed Ms. Perfectly Fine!

I loved this book so much! The banter, the teasing and winding each other up. But also the love and support these two show each other.
Their relationship moves fast (the book takes place over the course of three weeks) but I didn't mind. It was lovely to see them fall in love with each other and to see what each of them was thinking and feeling. The split POV really enriched the story.
Also, the chronic pain rep was amazing and how Elijah handled her flares, how he respected her and didn't pity her was amazing. I wish more people handled it like he did. The speech Autumn gave at the end of the book about how the world isn't built for those with chronic conditions really resonated with me. It made me feel so seen, so thank you Kate for including it.
The secundary storyline about the stalking was a nice touch! I figured it out before Autumn did, but it was very satisfying to learn I was right. And the drama gave the story a nice kick! I never read a book like this, romance/feelgood mixed with mystery but I really liked it and want to read more.
The only minus for me was how their innerthoughts were in cursive. That just doesnt work for my brain. But other than that I absolutely loved it, and I hope Kate will write more in this genre!!

For me, the most interesting part of reading a book is when you found out why the title is what it is. In this book, I found the meaning of the title from the beginning of the book, but that doesn't made my reading experience less enjoyable.
This is a cute palate cleanser after you read heavier book. It has enemy to lovers, reverse grumpy sunshine, forced proximity, and a little bit instalove. I think this book has more romance than another mystery thriller book.
Overall, i like it.

Love this cover😍
Really enjoyed the book!!!!

This was a cute, but not perfect read.
Autumn "Ms perfectly fine", a concert pianist, who had a bad accident, gets confronted with Elijah, a Game Developer who suddenly stands in her home and starts to move her furniture out. After a talk to her landlord, it gets out, that he rented the ground floor to him. He is okay with sharing the house, but Autumn doesn't want any stranger in her home and the haters-to-lovers story is born. But when Autumn and Elijah started to get to know each other better, the tension between them increases...
I enjoyed the book, it was cute, the suspense part was quite good, altough I wasn't suprised who the culprit was.
It felt a little rushed at some parts especially the romance and I wished there had been a bit more character development. My main issue was, that i couldn't fully connect with Autumn altough she is the female lead. That diminished the enjoyment about this book. But after all it was a delightful read and I definetly will pick up another book by the author.

The one, that had me loving the sass
Ms Perfectly Fine by Kate Callaghan ✨
I enjoyed it throughly and i am a dog person so i appreciated how a dog got a main part in having everyone wrapped around its paw 💙 the sideplot of a mini thriller was interesting. Not my usual cup of tea but it felt like it fit the story and it did not overpower the main plot.
Loved that chronic pain is being represented through the main character. I don't deal with her struggle and yet i felt i could relate and appreciated having read it.
A well balanced book with the growing relationship between Autumn and Elijah being in the main stage and loved how they grew to like and love each other.

I really thoroughly enjoyed this book. I loved the suspense it had and the mystery it had. I do think the enemies-to-lovers aspect wasn't very serious for enemies. I do agree with grumyxsunshine trope. I think there was a little bit of insta love in there and I do wish their journey before being together was drawn out a little longer. I did like that there was a good amount of talk about chronic pain. I will be honest I didn't like the way Elijah was in the beginning it was very rude to her space and not very understanding. I did enjoy the way the 2 perspectives were told and how we got to see both sides. I will say some things were unrealistic. This is a spoiler!! I didn't understand why all the time she never went to the police or something about the rose and why it seemed like she got mad he wanted to figure that out. I felt like there were some parts of the relationship also unrealistic. I don't believe a landlord would just let someone move in with someone especially when 1 is a woman and 1 is a man without discussion. Other than I would say give this book a try if you like reverse grumpy sunshine and instalove with a little bit of enemies to lovers.
Thanks to Kate Callaghan and Netgalley for providing me with this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

When I read the synopsis of this book I thought it would be another cute romance book and I was looking forward to it. While it was definitely cute and had a great romance the unexpected suspense and creepiness that simmered below the surface really pulled the story together. At almost every big event there was a layer of creepiness that kind of freaked me out yet kept me on the edge of my seat. This book was a great combination of romance and mystery. The writing was great and I couldn’t find any typo’s which is great since that usually distracts me from the story. In the beginning I did have some trouble getting into it and felt like it was moving a bit slow, but from about a quarter into the story it moved so fast I felt like the events took a few months even though it was only about a month. I’m very glad I read this book.

Ms. Perfectly Fine was more than perfectly fine. It was a good book. The dive into chronic pain could really help someone that suffers from that. I also enjoyed the humor and the dog!

I’m back again with an ARC I recently received, which I have to give a big thank you for. Unfortunately, I have to start by saying this book wasn’t for me. It’s a book that put me in a reading funk, and took me FOREVER to finish. The story follows Autumn, a famous concert pianist. She is trying to make a comeback after a traumatic accident and can’t afford any distractions. Of all the things to go wrong, she didn’t expect her landlord to rent out her ground floor to someone. As days pass, Autumn makes a lot of effort to get him to leave, which makes him want to win her over. And you know where it goes from there.
The story is slow paced, and even though it’s marketed as an enemies to lovers, it didn’t read that way. Elijah never dislikes her. While I enjoyed having a character with chronic pain, and reading with her struggles with that. I didn’t really like the add in of the stalker/mystery. I felt like it was unnecessary, and I could have done without it. Overall, I was not a big fan of this one, and would unfortunately tell you to skip this one. 2.5⭐️s.

I really liked this book!! I loved the writing!!! The two main characters were written perfectly. Im so glad that I got to read this book!!!

Thank you to NetGalley for giving this ARC, and this fluent influence my review. The tropes pulled me in, and this didn’t disappoint! Read it!!!!

This book was a nice and cute story, but there was something holding me back from liking the entire novel itself.
Autumn Alder and Elijah Wells are forced to live together because of a landlord's greediness. Autumn and Elijah both refuse to give up the house and try to work things out.
Their arguments quickly turn to flirtatiousness at an alarming rate.
Dare I say it was almost an insta-love situation between Autumn and Elijah.
I don't mind this trope when it's done well, but unfortunately, the way the characters fell head over heels in love with each other in a short amount of time AFTER constant bickering with one another.
Their fairy tale ending was sweet and fluffy, but it was just too unrealistic for my taste.

A romantic suspense that features a concert pianist and a gaming developer. Autumn was in a tragic accident years ago that left her to manage chronic pain daily. She has retreated from the spotlight since the accident and death of her best friend but now she’s ready to take on a solo performance again. Her routines are interrupted when Elijah moves in to the home she rents. At first the two butt heads and can’t seem to agree on anything. But as time goes on, the pair start to realize maybe they can get along and not only live in peace but also help each other out. Once Elijah finds out about the roses being left for Autumn, his concern for her safety increases. Once the giver is revealed, Autumn’s safety is even more in danger. A good enemy to lovers story with a bit of suspense.

It's actually a nice and sweet story, but i really just can't immersed into it no matter how much I wanted to.
