I thought this was gonna be a cute cozy winter read but it turned so raunchy for no reason lol

eh

Two months ago I was on a tour of Scotland and thinking “dang this would be a great setting for a romance novel” except it already exists and it is this book.

I can’t tell if it’s funny or incredibly cringy that Abby Jimenez has referenced Nadia Cakes, the bakery that SHE LITERALLY OWNS, in both of her books that I’ve read so far. Did she write these books just to self-advertise???? (jk but 🤔)

I desperately want this to be a four star read.

This is a book about time travel (and probably some other themes that have yet to be revealed). I swear I’ve read it before, but I remember reading it in 2012, which is five years before this book was published. The only explanation, of course, is that I’ve also personally been affected by time travel. Or I just have a bad memory.

This book is so long but so good

I really want to love this YA queer romance novel, but it is really slow moving and I think I get annoyed when authors make teenagers sound like fully matured adults.

This book could either make me cry or make me bored out of my mind. Idk what will happen in the next hundred pages. I’m not racing to finish it because it’s not super plot-driven, but I like reading about the two main characters.

DNF at 15% - I didn’t need a prequel and I found it too boring to get through

DNF - idk how this book can be so boring when people are dying every 17 pages but I cannot finish this book
