It’s cute! The characters are fun and relatable, and the angst balances the fluff well! It’s a solid sequel, and I actually like the character development and plot more than Delilah’s book. Astrid is such a compelling character and seeing her journey was really nice. I love Jordan. I love how the old and new characters were incorporated

Absolutely loved this book. It spoke to me as a bisexual woman raised to be straight by default only to then fall hard and fast for a girl and have it take me by complete surprise.
Ashley Herring Blake is a brilliant writer who creates wonderful characters I truly cannot help but love. Astrid was one of my favourite characters from ‘Delilah Green Doesn’t Care’ and so I was instantly invested in her romance and felt very protective over her as she clashed heads with Jordan. Jordan is a really endearing and lovable love interest. I love her and Astrid together and the way they navigated their issues.
Absolutely cannot wait for ‘Iris Kelly Doesn’t Date’!

This was a lovely, pretty cheesy book, but it was exactly what I signed up for.
It was an easy read in between other books and I enjoyed it.
Astrid and Jordan had great chemistry and the way their relationship developed was cute.
Not sure if I will read the other books in the series, but this one was fine.

The people were right: this is even better than Delilah Green doesn't care, which I almost didn't think was possible, but here we are
BUT, where is my hot soft butch carpenter girlfriend???? And where is my cute and fluffy and fucking sexy love story???? I'm jealous, to say the least
(also, I am Astrid Parker, Astrid Parker is me... which was kind of scary, tbh)

i love astrid and jordan your honor
the turmoil of trying to figure out who you are really jumped out in this book and i loved it! ashley did amazing with the way she portrayed the feelings astrid is going through during her awakening. the "big" drama was a bit much imo and probably
could have been portraved a lot differently than it was. i love how dramatic astrid was about it though , be tbh... same
