Okay but I DEVOURED this book? I would’ve read it in one night if I didn’t have to get up for work today. When I say I flew through it - hook, line, sinker, and any other fishing lingo necessary - I mean I FLEW THROUGH IT.
It was nice to feel like I could see both sides of the fence Oliver and Will were on. Plus, their interactions were fucking adorable, COME ONNN!!
Where the book started was refreshing from other queer romances, and I certainly appreciated it. It also turns out that I have If This Gets Out, which Sophie and Cale Dietrich co-authored, on my shelf so I’m excited to read that one too! I enjoyed Only Mostly Devastated and Sophie’s writing style and will be keeping an eye on future novels!
