This was a cute quick read with a little light hearted love. I was into the book but man, did Bea PISS ME OFF. The "relationship" was all fine and dandy but then her lack of communication skills just came out of nowhere. And I don't feel like her reason for shutting down was even that serious. Not to mention, she had it all wrong. Like girlypop, you're acting like this over GUESSING?!
I was fed up after that and just couldn't care enough. Nicole was forgiving but I was just side eyeing her for the rest of the book. Not bad though overall. I enjoyed it.

It's a sapphic romcom, and I'm always here for sapphic stuff, but some of the miscommunication drove me up the wall genuinely. Also not a fan of fake dating but I guess it worked here.
