I absolutely loved this book, particularly the second half. I love how it captured all different kinds of love and really highlighted the importance of friendship and platonic love, whilst also not disregarding romantic love for those who want it.
It explained the idea of aromanticism and asexuality well and simply, and had a wide range of representation. I also liked how everyone’s journey to self-discovery was different.
I also related to Georgia a lot and I really loved her character and how her friendship with Rooney developed. The ending had me so emotional and feeling warm and fuzzy.
The actual storyline was simple and not totally unique or ground-breaking by any means. If you’re looking for that sort of novel, you probably won’t find that here. But it was heart-warming, easy to read, great representation and, personally, made me feel more seen than I have before, which is why I enjoyed it so so much.
Would recommend and will probably end up reading it again in the near future.
