I would like to thank the publisher, Netgalley, and the author for the ARC of this book. I read an advanced copy of this book, so the final edition of the book might be slightly different. All thoughts and opinions are my own, as always.

If you’re looking for a short and sweet queer YA romance, look no further! This book honestly feels exactly like a cupcake (I’d compare it to a mooncake, but I have yet to try one, unfortunately!) It’s just a few small bites of fluff and sweetness, and honestly a perfect book when you’re in that kind of mood.

While the book definitely touches on some heavier topics, like grief and loss, it does so in a way that manages to still keep the book light. This does mean that some people might find it a bit shallow at moments, but that means it’s also good for when you just want something softer to read too!

I think my main complaint is that it just sometimes felt too shallow, a problem worsened by the fact that there’s also just a lot of drama. Again, the drama is generally kept quite light, even if what happens can actually be considered quite intense, but it also means that the book feels as if it flits from one disaster to the next sometimes, and not always in a good way. While I’m glad we didn’t get too bogged down with some of those events, I also wish we’d sometimes slowed down a bit, and got to see some calmer and sweeter moments between the MCs again, especially near the end.

Overall though, I think a lot of people will like and enjoy this book, if not love it, and I hope it finds plenty of readers when it releases soon!
