YES YES YES, THE BEST. WE ALL NEED A EZRA IN OUR LIFE. I really enjoyed every moment of this book, Ezra and Anneliese are the cutest couple ever and I love them so much <33. I now realize that I read this book in 4 days 🧍🏻♀️. Anyway, YOU HAVE TO READ IT, it’s my favorite Wattpad books so far :).

four outta five
where? where tf do i get me an ezra??
EZRA KAI REID OWNS MY HEART SOUL AND BODY. this book was mainly fluff. DO U HEAR ME COMPLAIN THO?? yeaah i didnt think so. EZRA IS BASICALLY GEN Z'S DREAM MAN. the references to tiktok and insta and all had me down bad.
why ezra is perfect for me:
- he is good with cats (every cat gals dream)
- hot name (top five hottest names for sure)
- gentleman (own me please)
- hottest morning voice known to god
- the hottest kisser on gods green earth
- inherit of a whole fucking book store
SAY THE WORD AND IM YOURSS <33333
the side characters in this book *chefs kiss*

[WATTPAD] rly good book and i loved the competitive dynamic between Ezra and A :)
even though i didnt get as attached as i usually do to the characters, it was still good. the book store scene when he asked her out was so cute, and i love the bookstore :)

*3.5 stars. The start was a bit boring and a few bits here and there and when they got together they almost acted like they were just good friends. Also it said it was a rivals/enemies to lovers but they were immediately friends so I don’t get that. But I did enjoy a lot of it and it was all very cute :)

SHUT UP. I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THIS WAS IN GOODREADS OMG WHAT.
Okay so to begin with, Ezra and Julian have my whole fucking heart. I am not the one who usually goes for cute stories but this story, this book, was fucking phenomenal. It was writyen so fucking beautifully and as it was a college romance I expected this to be a cliché romance but it was SOO much more than that, the way that ezra and Anneliese always argue, the way ezra silently admires liese, agh. So fucking cute. I was never that reader who would say or comment "awww" or "my heart" on a book but this book was so good which made me do it REPEATEDLY. LOVE THEM SM

I can never, never, get enough of Ezra and Anneliese! Being that I rarely read books from Wattpad anymore (I think I finished all the good ones-?), I was so so so glad that I had found this book back in July. Normally I wouldn't re-read a book unless I haven't read it for 2 or more years, but ah! I couldn't resist going back again. An amazing work that deserves more recognition.

I liked reading this book until the last few chapters, there was WAY to much drama going on for my liking. It was hard for me to finish it after that.

5 stars!
This book. Rivalry-to-lovers? One of the best tropes to exist.
I remember when I read this I loved it so much. This was so beautifully written✨
They can both play the violin😫
And me being whipped for Ezra- I want to faint thinking of this hottie playing this damn instrument😭✋🏼
This book is also in need of a re-read.
See ya🎻✨👋🏼

I found this author on Tiktok and after watching a few of her videos and reading then positive comments left about her book, I was persuaded that I needed to read it. The whole book flowed really nicely and make me want to continue reading and the length of the book contributed to this as it didn't drag the story on.
The ending and the whole book was so cute and left me smiling at my screen whilst I read. I loved watching the relationship between Ezra and Anneliese grow and develop, I also loved the friendships included in the book and I defiantly need to find myself some friends like them.
Overall, I really enjoyed reading the book and would recommend it to anyone who's looking for a new book boyfriend or think that they would like the story as I'm sure you would.

I always knew I was gonna enjoy it. It’s a romance Wattpad book Ofc I’ll love it.
I started this back when Covid was at its peek but I never finished it, but this book is just way too good.
I got bored a lot but that might just be me and my mental problems.
Some of my favorite scenes were when Ezra took her to the book store for the first time. Actually started tearing up cause like lonely forever!!
Another of my favorite scenes is when they realize they have known each other when they were younger and met at the cafe with their mom’s.
Anyway highly recommend if you want a good read to show you that you will never find someone who actually cares for you the way fictional men care for the main character.

i read this book because the author posted a promotion on tiktok saying she wrote the best rivals to lovers story on wattpad. she was right. this story will always have a special place in my heart. they’re literally soulmates and i cannot wait to read dear dakota. every time i see a brown hair guy on tiktok holding a ginger cat i instantly think it’s julian and send it to the author. i cant remember what is was. hurricane? earthquake? i don’t think it was an earthquake but anyway, the scene where ezra and annaliese were hiding whilst there was a storm during the game . i literally love that scene. everything about this book is perfect. i cant wait to re read it. so cute.

I finished this book a couple days ago but started weeks ago while it was still getting updated and I loved every minute- it’s amazing.
Academic music rivals meets soccer, I can’t express my love for this book and it’s characters (mainly our wholesome soccer and band idiot Ezra).
I’m terrible at writing reviews but just know this book is absolutely amazing and you should all give it a read, it also has Warner references so like who wouldn’t read this? Plus the romance and chaotic friend group is absolutely PERFECT.

Today, I found out that this book is no longer available on Wattpad.
This story was one of the first ones that got me into reading, and I will never forget it. I wish I could read it again. Hopefully, one day that will be possible again. The characters, the story and the way it was written gave me nostalgia and peace. I don't really know how to explain it other than this book made my mood instantly better. I truly write this review with sadness but also with gratefulness, because I got to read Ezra. Thank you, Mina!♡

Okayy.. so this book, its good. It could have been written better but i really like the plot and the characters in the story. It makes sense and it doesnt confuse you e.g. nothing bad happens just out of the blue and the reader doesnt know what happened or the MC doesn’t just jump from one place to another.

EZRA MF KAI REID IS LTRLLY THE BLUE PRINT OF WATTPAD MEN. THE THINGS I WOULD LET HIM DO. OMFG AND NOT TO MENTION JULIAN HE LTRLLY FUCKING CARRIED THE SERIES BRO. I LOVE HIS SO MUCH I CANT EVEN EXPRESS IT.

it’s just another wattpad book that i got bored of. i couldn’t finish it honestly. the plot felt generic with it being about school rivals. idk i feel like there was so much potential but i just didn’t find it interesting enough for me to read on.
