I enjoyed reading this book, it was an easy read and it was amazing to see the different writing styles between Zack and Courtney. Whilst Courtney's poems were good, ngl there were moments I fell for Zack's writing.

The author went into detail with her writing, it was raw. For me it made me a bit uncomfortableš«

I have loved the world of Little Miss and Mr Men since I was young. This book however was extremely disappointing, it seemed like the writer didn't know what he was doing because it just didn't make sense at all.

I would definitely recommend this book to those who love reading spicy books and enjoyed the pages I have read.
There is no problem with the book, it's just my taste in books has changed this year.

I enjoyed this book, I liked the representation of Athena and how she didn't meet the standard beauty standards. The chemistry between the main leads was great and it had moments of humor.
However there were sometimes where I did lose interest, it took a while to warm up to.
