some bookstagrammers that i follow loved this, but alas, i did not. i was hoping for a contemporary romance with historical vibes. i did not get that. sometimes the dialogue felt unrealistic, and there were too many similes and metaphors in the writing. like every other sentence was a simile or metaphor. i also didnt really care for the open door scenes. and sometimes, miscommunication is okay, but in this, it bugged me. they could have compromised way earlier if they just TALKED to each other.
