I really enjoyed this book!
Second chance romance, friends to lovers, it's always been you, one bed, opposites attract, he takes care of her.... Alex and Poppy's connection was written well. Maybe it's my type but I loved Alex from the beginning and then just continued to love him throughout. I thought the characters fears revealed at the end were realistic and made for the happy ever after. I can't wait to see this as a movie, it's a very cute romcom.

Let me start off with saying historical fiction is not my thing so unfortunately it didn't gain my interest at all. The first chapter does a good job of drawing you but and I think the idea of the story was good like you're wondering what's going to happen to Lucrezia and what kind of person Alfonso is but... It was a hard read and I'm glad it's over and it reaffirmed that I do not like historical fiction.

This book was definitely more world and character building between all the different storylines but still kept you engaged and interested in so many different ways with different plot points. A couple battles and new characters introduced made it exciting (A few minor discrepancies from the show noticed).

Loved the Asian rep, Alzheimer's rep, and mental health rep. The story felt very fast pace and yet dragged on in some ways and was predictable "Princess Switch" vibes - cute & lighthearted.

I was getting lots of Cars (the movie) vibes lol. Big Hollywood hotshot comes into a small town and helps fixes it up. So the fun characters of a small town were there. II really enjoyed the characters and each of their personalities brought to life. I feel like we got to really get to know everyone in the small town and it was so sweet. The inner monologues of Sawyer and Fallon are so genuine and relatable and make you feel with them. Sweet small town, second chance romance, romcom. *Alzheimer's rep was handled well throughout.

I don't see how this novella was needed..... But a good insight to the last chapter of Beautiful Disaster.

This book was so sweet and made you feel all over. It reminded me of Every Summer After by Carley Fortune. I enjoyed the dual timeline and second chance romance. I thought the reading dates and book bondings together were so cute. The young love reminded me of such a young time and gave me all the warm fuzzies.

So funny I rated this a 5 when I first read it... It's toxic college romance but we're here for it.
