This was a very cute love story. Characters that were dealing with their own hurts. I would recommend for 15 and up due to the amount of alcohol in this story. The romance is appropriate for 12+.

Such a cute self-inflicted forbidden romance! I love this couple, and the HEA! Nav's journey through life and love is entrancing. You don't want to miss out on this delightful love story!

I had a hard time starting this book just because I’m not a big romance reader but past the 50 page mark it really picked up for me, I found Nav to be so relatable and honestly some parts almost brought me to tears. I did love how slowly Nav fell for Gia I found it endearing how someone who declared themselves an expert in love didn’t realize she had fallen in love herself. Overall, this was a cute little book kind of cliche at points but still enjoyed the story until the end.

this book is gonna make me redownload a dating app because I feel even more (love)sick than I did watching heartstopper after finishing this book. Here’s just a few things I loved

- anxiety/neurodirvse rep! I’m autistic but also have social anxiety and I really related to Gia.

- cute dog!!! Gia has an anxiety therapy dog <3 I will say though, kinda devastated about the cuddles plotline

- parents trying to be better! Namely Nav’s dad going to therapy after pissing me off with that grounding. Also, GET YOUR KID ANOTHER DOG SINCE YOUR ASSHOLE (ex?)WIFE DOGNAPPED CUDDLES.

There’s more but I stayed up past midnight to finish this and I’m off to bed. THIS BOOK WAS SO CUTEEEE

This was a wonderfully done romance novel and had that children’s fiction element that I was looking for. Jessica Lewis was able to weave a great romance with characters that felt realistic and enjoyed going on this journey with them.

I was very lucky to get an arc for this book and I enjoyed every second of it I'm a sucker for like teenage romance kind of book and giving the shy girl a lesson on romance just amazing!
I really liked how Gia's anxiety was written also how gentle and caring Nav was not only with her anxiety but with her friendships it was just super wholesome
Super exciting too because it had POC representation and Queer representation!!!!!!

I loved this so much! Nav wasn't a great friend to Hallie imo.. but i see no flaws anywhere else with this book. Loved!

I absolutely loved this sweet, funny, and touching story. I was hooked from the very first page and things just got better from there.

Some of my favorite things:
✅ POC main characters
✅ Queer representation
✅ Anxiety representation
✅ True supportive friendships

I already want to read this book again 🥰
