hello new guilty pleasure read!! 😮💨🤌🏼
I seriously squealed while reading this book … SQUEALED! and laughed and smiled and teared up - it was the absolute perfect blend of emotions we have to stan
hannah and garrett hit SO many tropes (and favorites of mine thank youuu): fake dating, one bed, enemies to lovers, guy falls first
like please just unalive me it’ll be less emotional 🫠
the story follows a typical collegiate romance story with a “will they won’t they” followed by a third-act breakup (🤮) - but the DRAMA y’all I was so here for it
I normally hate the very dramatic side characters who seem absolutely determined to ruin the MC’s life - but everyone just fit so perfectly with the story!!
and from someone who has gone through similar situations as hannah, thank you. thank you for making us seem seen and unbroken. healing is a long road, but it’s so wonderful to see yourself in characters’ trauma as well 🫶🏼
I will now be devouring the rest of the series thank you very much
