Such a fun time. A very sweet romance and unexpectedly hilarious (even considering some of the millennial humor in there). I swear I was just alternating between swooning and laughing so hard my eyes started tearing up the whole time I read this book.
My only complaint is that I think the whole book takes place over the course of a month or two (not counting the epilogue)? I wish the timeline would have been extended more to make it feel less insta-lovely. Not that it felt extremely insta-lovey, but the feeling was present
For other readers, If you're looking for deep, complex characters and plot, this won't be something you'd like. Go into this book knowing it's a very silly, fun, fast paced book.

The Kindle version is 48 pages and I got 15 pages in.
The pacing is so fast and writing so unclear that the 25% of the book I read was basically incoherent.
