This was cute. I really enjoyed the representation, from the sephardic Jewish rep to anxiety and ADHD rep as well. The Instagram and texting vibes were great and I loved all the advice throughout the story. I think the characters were great, I would have loved more of the romance. I feel like there was a lot of buildup to the actual relationship and I just wanted more of Lucy and Fletcher. The middle also felt a little slow for me, but man I loved the grand gestures so much. The third act conflict just seemed like a little much for me and I was annoyed with both of them at times. I also loved how much the book dived into the food aspect. I did like how it ended though. Thank you to Forever Publishing for sending me an ARC to read and review!
