Incredibly cute! A little cliche but I think it adds to the charm. A modern 90s-esk rom com but make it sapphic. 

I wasn’t a big fan of Alex in the beginning. She was very harsh and was lacking conviction in her actions. She grew on me a lot by the end of the book though I loved the character development. 

I think the transition from strangers to friends to lovers was very natural and Molly and Alex fit very well together. 

I really wish either one of them had a single friend though. They were literally each other’s only friend and now they’re dating, so in a way they’re back to having zero friends. I wanted more/better side characters.
