How to tell that you’ve been reading too many enemies to lovers books?

You get weirded out or taken aback from seeing the main love interests being warm towards each other on their first meeting 🤣

…Yep, so Otto can go STUFF HIMSELF 🥴👎

Australia’s Ronald Reagan - so may stuff ups that can be traced to his time in office, yet still so inexplicably seen as some hero 🫠

Bro, if someone kicked my door down just for funsies, I’d throw them down the STAIRS for funsies 🫠🥲

‘Grayson’? More like ‘GRACELESS’ 😎😎😎🤪

And THAT scene boys and girls and others is why I could NEVER be a nurse… 🫣🫠🫠

Barely 30 pages into this and I already feel so invested in Brooke and Anna’s relationship. Not sure if that’s just because they remind me of Avatrice so much or what, but I still adore them ❤️

…and already want to stick a big middle finger at Brooke’s parents 🙃

Starting to think that “Regency FMC With A Hardcore Left Hook” should be its own trope 🤭😆👏

"But I don't want to go to bed! I want to stay up late and get RAILED!"

BRO, ALY HAS NO CHILL WHATSOEVER 🤣🤣🤣

Ironic how this guy is wearing a mask and communicating only by texts and gestures, yet Josh and Aly have better communication than 90% of romantasy protagonists 🤪🤣

Also SOME OF THESE HIGHLIGHTED SECTIONS? I don't know whether y'all need therapy or JESUS 😶‍🌫️😆

"Do you ever feel completely alone? (...) I told you I'm weird, but it's like the kind of weird that doesn't have a home anywhere. It's like the way I am isn't enough of one thing and too much of another. Sometimes I feel like I don't belong anywhere and if I was only more of this or less of that, I would. Does that make sense?"

BRO, THIS BOOK IS HITTING MY AUTISTIC ASS IN THE FEELS SO HARD 😞😭❤️

Honestly, the tone and humour shifts in this book are SEAMLESS 😆

Aly: *Peeved off about all the gifts*
Josh: *Smiling, giggling and twirling his hair watching her reactions* 😆

The way the FMCs voice went from musing over trauma, caring for her scared co-worker, helping a DV victim, a homeless guy and being lonely with her cat to guzzling white wine and thirsting over masked guys was almost whiplash inducing XD 🥲🤣🤣

Feeling lowkey called out by the "27 and still single" line, thanks very much, Emily Rath 🫠

Just reading those trigger warnings had me sweating - I'm no prude but LORDY, I THOUGHT THIS WAS ABOUT HOCKEY 🥲😱😱

...That being said, yes, I like this book so far. Thanks for the rec PQC (even if I feel like you're trying to get me barred from Heaven...😅🤣)

Just a heads up, Stephenie Meyer - us guys CAN actually blush. I get that Beau has a splotchy red neck but it can JUST be called *blushing* 😅🫠🫠

HOW is it that I was never a fan of the Twilight books but I'm actually enjoying THIS? 🫣🤯

Beau feels a little more relatable than Bella (probably the gender swap 😅😅) and Edythe is better than Edward - less masochistic and a little more endearing.

Can see this being a Suprise Read for this year already 🫨

The protagonist is giving me Erica Yurken (Hating Alison Ashley) vibes rn.
Guessing with the way she described her childhood and her mother's work, you would feel a little spiteful and over cautious with romance

I'm still loving the book so far. Only onto Chapter 2, with little info, but it still feels so deeply personal

Don't know much about Dexter but he definitely gets points for unique attempts (and location) at picking a girl up 😅😅😂

I still feel a little shaken at the fact that I've FINALLY found a book with an openly and proudly geeky MMC.

Feeling so seen RN 😇

Straight to the point, tension between family members and chemistry established - LOVE when books hop right to it ❤️

And OOF, Nathan is so going to be my next Bookish Cosplay ☺️

Props to this story for not focusing AS much on the battles etc of war but also the media and dissenting opinions side of it too, which can prove just as dangerous as many battle campaigns.

Fun Fact: A lot of British people didn't even know the immense casualties of WW1 until years AFTER the war had finished, since the propaganda from the media was so strong about the cause/casualties of the war.

"Tea? You look like you need some, Winnow."

We all need a Sarah in our lives 🥲🫖

Also loving the neo-1920s(?) aesthetic ❤️

"Have you seen (the Villain)? As if anything associated with him could ever be innocent (...) he's a walking vice."

Tatianna describing not only the Villain but EVERY morally grey guy in books 😅😅🤣

"I have been in love with no-one, and never shall," (Carmilla) whispered. "unless it should be with you!"
How beautiful she looked in the moonlight!

Gay tension, 19th century style 😅🤣👍

Y'know, enemies to lovers sounds pretty cool until you realise that you will have to make out with someone you, you know, HATE 🫤

The list of people I hate is pretty short, but I wouldn't make out with ANY of them 🤐🫥😅🤣

Lou and Co. trying to pick allies has the same energy as picking who you want to be in a college group assignment with, from a class full of people who hate you 🫠

What's the French(?) word for "Situation F*cked'? 🫠🥲

SPOILERS AHEAD:

Reid, I know you have a hot witch wife, but getting it on when your mum is a few tents away? BRUH... 🤐

The tent, the theatre roof, the ice river - I'm starting to think that Reid has an outdoor kink... 🤐🫠 Great outdoors, not the great SHAG-doors... 🫣🫥🤣

Went from worrying about being k-worded to aggressive making out. Yep, this is an enemies to lovers alright 😅

The fact that the line "lick mine and I'll lick yours" was on Page *69* was just... 💀🤣
God-tier editing or irony? 😅

Evie, seeing the Villain like: "(Squidward Voice) OH NO, HE'S HOT!" 😳😭

Also, can we talk how we've gone from "Never follow dark strangers into the forest" in classic fairy tales to "YES, absolutely follow the dark handsome stranger into the forest"?
Talk about a shift in values... 💀🤣
