This book was groundbreaking Lu good. I tried to put it down several times to get some sleep, but I couldn’t. I kept telling myself just one more chapter until it was 4am and I had devoured the entire story.

Leigh is a wonderful, relatable heroine. How I empathized with her. With the jaded loneliness it is to be single when all your friends are coupled up. Her dry humor and quiet cynicism were a gem. I also loved her sass and banter in the book world. I lived for her next encounter with Killian. And, oh, boy: Killian!

He was a dream literally the cocky billionaire side of him, his banter, his teasing. But the real him was even more…. All those moments when they almost kissed but didn’t had me on tenterhooks for the entire book… the tension was so high…. I loved their relationship the arc from fantasy enemies to lovers to real friends to lovers. He was smoldering as a cowboy and toe-curlingly amazing also as a regular guy.

All the situations they found themselves in had me laughing out loud.

I think this is honestly my favorite book I’ve read this year if not ever.

All the little references to tropes and booktok and inside jokes for us book lovers were just the cherry on this perfect book cake.

If I could give it a million stars I would.

Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for gifting me an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This book was fine! A cute little story about a lonely girl falling in love with a male character in a book, only to find him materialize into her life shortly after reading about him. Very Kate and Leopold style, these two characters navigate the teacher/student relationship on Earth while managing feelings for each other as well.

This wasn't necessarily an original trope, but I didn't really mind that. I liked their friendly banter and overall, it was a cute story. The writing was not earth shattering but I thought it was absolutely sufficient for the story at hand. Now if only this could happen to me...
