pickThis was an insta-love, and that didn't work for me at the beginning. The present timeline felt more believable, and flashbacks about things that had happened years ago gave some depth.
Plot was a bit missing, it took some time before things got interesting. But the last part of the book was really intriguing and everythings ends with a cliffhanger.

pickThis reads like the romcom “Set It Up” but in slightly different setting. I liked that mental health was such a huge part of the story. It really was a pretty cute romance. A few wrinkles, but nothing too glaring. Breakup felt silly to me. What I did notice though is that mature content 🌶️ matches the one from the book I‘ve read prior, down to the sequence and details. This book came out 2 years earlier, it is now the trend, I guess.
pickThis first seemed too similar to the first book in the series, but then the plot veered and I wound up liking it much more. The characters are very relatable: both Russ and Rory have serious issues with their parents, but he's responded by trying not to attract any attention, and she's responded by acting out for negative attention. Working at summer camp together, they learn to trust and rely on one another.

It's rained AAAAAALL DAY here. And I'm so full of cold 🤧
So I've had an afternoon on the couch under a blanket with a good summer read and a Dark Terry's Chocolate Orange. Bliss.
Hopefully starting this one today! Work has been crazy, but after today I‘m off 7 days!! I‘m not doing anything tomorrow 🫣
