Better Hate than Never by Chloe Liese
4.0

This was a book of two halfs for me, I struggled to connect with the first half but really enjoyed the second half

The first 40ish% where they're both in their dislike stage, I just didn't connect with it and struggled to get through (ended up pausing and reading another book, so glad I came back)

The second half where they were getting along and got together was so enjoyable. I love how open and truthful they are with each other and clearly communicate everything - it was refreshing to see and read

- dislike to love
- childhood family friends / neighbours 
- opposites attract
- queer fmc (demisexual)
- neurodivergent fmc (ADHD)
- chronic condition (migraines)
- no 3rd act break up
- duel pov, 1st person

Thank you to Piatkus and NetGalley for the arc - all opinions are my own
