I'm torn because I love the premise and the fearlessness about sensitive subjects, but the cliched parts that hurt believability are disappointing. I think I still might read it. Great review!

The cliched parts are about 30% of the story so I think you should give it a shot anyway๐Ÿ˜Š Thank you for commenting!

I'm not one for cliche love-at-first stories, but it sounds like there's a lot more to this one. Nice review!

I'm not a fan of the love-at-first-sight thing, and I agree that it sounded improbable. But I liked that the secondary characters were well developed and added some humor to the story. I might check this one out. Thanks for the awesome review!
