I liked this one a lot. The "I should have known that all our bickering was really foreplay" line sums up the dynamic and I found it delightful.

Overall really liked it, liked the friend group and the sort of glimpses of their history together (I have not read book 1 of the series) liked the realness of the relationship between Jack and his grandmother.

 However... It was spicier in the beginning and then started fading to black which, I get, how many times can you describe the same sex acts, but still found kind of disappointing. Particularly when there's a seemingly endless section where they are fighting/miscommunicating and then finally hash it out... I do want the play by play of the makeup sex. So sue me! 

I related a lot to the anxiety thing although I don't think I've really ever suffered to that extent. 

There was some fat rep here but also a lot of uncomfortable body image stuff for me, like idk, giving the chubby guy disordered eating just felt like blaming him for his body type. As someone who's fat without an eating disorder, I did not love. Not that every fat character has to be "a good fat" but yeah. 

This was my first Kris ripper, it won't be my last, love that some of zir other books are poly so looking forward to that.
