Look, this book isn't perfect. The activism in it seems a little performative and I had issues with characters saying racist/homophobic things only for the main character to sound woke whenever she called them out on it. I had issues with the writing style and the lack of plot. However, I also grinned impossibly hard during the first date scene because I just loved Alison and Charlotte together. And I really appreciate this book for having a pansexual character! You rarely see that! (Although I cannot speak for the pan rep, so hopefully there will be some ownvoices reviewers who can speak to that.)

Anyway. This book was cute. It was sweet. Sure, it was plotless and I struggled to get along with Alison the whole time and found that the relationship drama was soooo unnecessary. But I also appreciated this book for what it was: a simple, sweet story about learning to accept that not everything has to be perfect.

Thank you to the publisher for giving me a review copy via Netgalley! It in no way impacted my review or rating of the book :)
