Between Friends & Lovers by Shirlene Obuobi

emotional hopeful

4.0

It was a bit heavier than I expected, my main problem was the way chapters ended and started, a lot of the time it cut off right when it was good and started with something depressing which. But overall it had some humour, some trauma, some sweetness, character developement - was good, definitely had a unique dynamic compared to your average romance

I liked it. They were cute, how they overcame all the obstacles together, simply love is the perfect title. 
but cmon doing it in the house of your employer, in his bed furthermore?! And then it not even being satisfying 💀
I might dislike kids a little more after having read this.

Love. It is terribly tough, is it not? I could not have lived through all those days in the Peninsula had it not been for love. Hatred would not do it.
And I agree!

The first half especially was up to my taste, the middle confused me a bit, and at the end I couldn't believe it was actually done...
Had been searching for something like wildwood dancing and this hit that spot.

I've got to process this for a minute.
