Romajuliette's alright but I loved Juliette as a character, she's so fun.
Also this book has great white british man representation. I feel like the content here is really accurate to their culture.

The first sex scene had more development than the worldbuilding
Koen and Serena were carrying this novel while Owen was the group member who didn't do his work
Also if you read this for a serious paranormal romance, you will knot like the ending (aha I can make puns too)

Two stars because I guess it's a story, but it was so boring. It's not even because there was low stakes, I felt like the author was trying to make a point but literally nothing was going on?
Not what I expected from a nobel prize winner. I might check out the book that actually got him the prize? idek

I came to rate this fine piece of children's literature after finishing A Good Girl's Guide to Murder (more mature, so would not recommend to anyone under 13). So sad that it never became a series

4.5 because it was an enjoyable read and I was able to finish it in a few days with ease. One qualm I had is that Pip and Ravi's relationship kind of came out of nowhere.

Too many naked women, not even hot men being naked
Also 3 stars for that one time evey got with some old uncle-looking dude
V and Evey are the "He makes me worse" couple (platonic/borderline romantic? you decide) and that ending was girlboss tho

This book is actually like a bangla natok.
If you like cute romances and love triangles, you'll like this.
Also the ending does a bit of telling not showing but that's just a minor issue for me.
