If you're into slow paced romance books with lots of inner monologue, you might like this, but I still wouldn't recommend it.

The first half of the book was sweet, even though I already had so many issues with it. The first one being that it was just boring and underwhelming. Every scene or every promise the text made was just not fulfilled. There could've been so much more happening. Instead they just talked and sold popcorn. Which I guess is fine, but yeah boring. The second issue is that I didn't know what to love about the characters. Like I very much knew their flaws, but that's the only thing I got out of the book. Expect that they were supposed to be hot and attractive... Don't know why though. That's honestly the same with everything else. I was just supposed to believe that they have chemistry and like each other, but I didn't know why they would.

The storyline about saving the business was actually pretty interesting (without knowing anything about that), but it did unfortunately fizzle out.

And in the second half, I got annoyed at one of the MCs because she was rather self-centred. And then their communication was horrendous. (And I don't usually mind miscommunications because I understand that sometimes people have reasons to not be able to talk about their feelings, but if I see someone struggling to talk I give them fucking time.)

I guess I should've written this after getting over my annoyance 🥲 Well, sorry for that. I liked the dialogues at least.

🎧 2/5: The audiobook was narrated by Lori Prince. While I usually like her narration, this definitely missed the mark for me. Both characters had a very high and squeaky voice and the intonation was a little weird. It made it seem like things were important or dramatic when they weren't.
