Academia is trash and this book kinda goes into the harsh parts of the whole gig. But also the female lead's insecurities had me rolling my eyes a lot lol sorry
Loved Deja and Alejandro. Loved the depiction of academia. What I didn't like so much was that the two main antagonists were women. I would have liked a bit more balance in that department as I feel like romance novels often villainises women who are not the heroine or in the heroine's inner circle. This however is a bit balanced by the strong female relationships depicted in the book.
This was yummy.
Alejandro was as perfect as Deja described him to be in the first chapter. He was PERFECTION. Deja was perfect too; the problem: she didn't know it. Deja was bogged down with all of the pressures that land on our shoulders when we feel too much and need to do too much because it's expected too much.
It was nice to experience their growth as a couple and individual growth. This was just wholesome and I totally appreciated the absence of a third scene break up. THANK YOU!! I didn't need it or want it and it wasn't lacking!
I'm sure I'll re-read this one soon enough.
