The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun
4.5
adventurous emotional funny inspiring reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

This was... absolutely fantastic, and Dev and Charlie now have a permanent space carved out in my heart???

From how the book approached mental health, to the "we're gonna have all the tough conversations that we need to have because we're both adults", to the love just pouring through every word, to the realization that what the other person needs and deserves is nothing short of the best version of yourself??? Not to mention the reality TV-show setting which was the perfect amount of drama??? Yeah I loved this and now I want a whole spin-off with Daphne's journey, please and thank you!!!!

I will read anything and everything Alison Cochrun writes (and I'm aching to go ahead and read the Christmas short story that she wrote for Dev and Charlie - but I'll wait for actual Christmastime for the vibes!)
