This was such a cute book! The emails between Henry and Alex were so adorable. I loved how Henry and Alex’s personalities complimented each other. They’re so cute together. June and Nora were also really cool characters and I’m glad we got to know a little bit about them and their personalities. It was so heartwarming to see Henry and Alex grow more comfortable with themselves and their sexuality in the relationship. The book touches on politics and gerrymandering and corruption  but it doesn’t go into too much detail since it’s a romance book first and foremost. Really cute and sweet with a happy ending that might have been really unrealistic but we’ll give it a pass since the book was so cute. I would describe this as a comfort read.
