This story has taken me on an emotional roller coaster ride with two amazing FMCs. Olive's and Stella's struggles were so different yet similar and very much relatable. It is such a sweet, simple, tragic and genuine story.
This book covered so many important topics in such a way that felt so natural and not at all awkward - family tragedy, unsupportive family, health issues, mental health, sexual harassment, toxic ex, self-doubt, phobia, queer romance. Just WOW!
It is not just that and much much more with fake dating, opposites attract, the amazing banter, the teasing... oohhh. As I said, an emotional roller coaster ride.
AND this is a debut novel which blows my mind. Thank you for this thoughtful yet inspiring story, Andie Burke. I cannot wait to see what you have in store for us next.
Trigger Warnings to look out for: grief, death, anxiety/depression, taking care of a sick family member.
