3.5 stars!

Honestly, I think I might’ve hyped this book up too much for myself. I liked the premise, and it’s two awesome writers of LGBTQ+ stories, so I most likely set the bar too high.

It didn’t completely disappoint, obviously- there were so many cute moments, and the relationships between characters were interesting. But for me, the drama didn’t have enough substance: the whole divorce issue is so easily brushed off, what happens with Hudson is too overdramatic.

And then, the ending, which to me felt forced. Not only did the epilogue feel like a rushed addition, but it felt like Becky and Adam’s writing styles clashed quite suddenly? It’s as if Becky likes to give the characters happy endings, Adam likes to give sad, open ended conclusions, and they just couldn’t agree where and how they were going to tie it up. 

However, I am glad I had the oppurtunity to read this book- and I was especially excited when I saw that my local library and a signed first edition!
