Your rating:
The book offers several funny and heartwarming scenes that add charm to the story.
Brooke’s frequent blushing and mentions of “red ears” became repetitive, detracting from character depth. To me, I found Brooke a bit bland and made it difficult to understand Anna’s attraction from her perspective.
While the opposites-attract trope is appealing, the rapid progression of Brooke and Anna’s relationship felt unrealistic given their limited/ small prior interaction.
If you’re looking for a breezy romantic comedy without much drama, this could be an enjoyable pick.
0I really enjoyed this book. It felt so real and like a story that could actually happen in real life and I think the characters responded in ways real people would too.
