There was a lot I loved about this book! I loved the tension and the chemistry, and I loved seeing Astrid discover who she is and what her sexuality is. As someone who didn’t realize I was a lesbian until my mid-20s, this was great to see (especially with the help of some of my favorite sapphic novels). However, I felt like there was a bit missing for me, especially when compared to Delilah Green. There were also smaller flaws that were there with Delilah Green, but are harder to ignore in this book. I would still highly recommend this, and I can’t wait for Iris’ book.
