Thank you Casey McQuiston for taking me to an alternate universe where Trump is not elected and instead we have a female president - a Democrat- whose son is the very hot Alex Claremont-Diaz. In this universe, love wins and hate is OUT. So refreshing and full of hope. This cute romcom had me giggling and smiling on every page. I am so glad I made it my December BOTM.

Alex and Henry, first enemies, but was that animosity hiding something neither wanted to acknowledge? Yes.

They both just have to get to that point (or maybe just Alex does?).

I love how they were forced to be in one another's company after an incident at a wedding, but quickly started communicating with each other just because they wanted to.

I especially looked forward to the pages that include ...more

I enjoyed this book! I fell in love with all the characters, appreciated the gay and bisexual representation and there were so many swoon worthy scenes. I understand why this book is so hyped in the book community. However, I found the story to drag in some places and I wish Alex and Henry were enemies for a bit longer before they developed their friendship/relationship.

I heard the fuss over this book and it is SO worth it. It's a heartwrenching "how will it ever work out?" enemies-to-lovers romance within a charming and often tongue-in-cheek alternate timeline, with sensitively handled issues of sexuality, race, and responsibility, great side characters, and a good dose of humour. ...more
