Set the Record Straight by Hannah Bonam-Young
4.0
emotional funny hopeful lighthearted reflective relaxing fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Loveable characters: Yes

This was very cute!! I would say it’s a quick read (and which technically it is) but it took me to long to actually get through it 🙈 not because I wasn’t enjoying it, I’ve just been busy and also struggling to physically read lately! But anyway, this was very cute! Fake Dating & Childhood best friends to lovers are my two favorite tropes so this was the perfect book for me! And the fact those two things were topped with a queer awakening and Christmas time made it even better! I do think they moved very fast and it was a little jarring that the fake dating ended before it really began but the fact that they’ve known each other their whole lives helped with the fast pace of their relationship! Also I adored Clara’s parents & Bagel so so much!
