This was so cute!! I was looking for a lighthearted read (the burnout has been real lately 😅) and this was exactly what I wanted it to be! This one pretty much had me at fake dating but the gaming aspect of it just made it a must! It was so fun to see Riley get outside her comfort zone in a way that she was still able to stay true to herself and find more things that she loved and getting to see her connect with her dad more as well! I also really loved Nathan and my only complaint is that I wish we got more of his back story. It was alluded, and talked about briefly, to that he was having a hard time because his parents neglected him so gaming was his way to have community and love but I wish it would’ve dived deeper into that! But overall, I had a really great time with this one and would definitely recommend! ☺️
