⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 stars
Honestly, I didn't expect much because the plot sounded just like a fun queer read but nothing more.
I guess I was wrong lol
I fell in love with astrid and how she explored her identity, I was surprised by some plottwists (in a romcom??), and I enjoyed the general setting in bright falls.
Also, it well pretty true to tone when it comes to queer sex which was surprising.
The only thing hindering me from giving 5 stars was the immense display of queer folk. Generally, I love how many different sexuality and gender identities were present in this book (literally all of her friends, her sister, the filming crew, even the baker staff). All that was a bit over the top for me tbh.
But still a great read with lovable characters and a feel-good atmosphere :)
Up until the last 80 or so pages of the book, this could have been a 4 star read!
It was so much better than lost symbol and I was getting my hopes up.
The ending though felt like Dan Brown is a transhumanist himself and he was trying to push some propaganda on the readers.
So weird and utopian
I love the story and world building, it's so fleshed out and compelling.
Most of the characters are really likeable as well and I appreciate that we got a backstory for most if the characters.
Very excited for the second part!
