David Is an Ugly Word

A truly delightful - and definitely NOT ugly! - story (potential color clashes notwithstanding).

I am a sucker for (former) friends-to-more stories, and the premise with Kenzie's synesthesia throwing a wrench in the works drew me in from the get-go. Both Kenzie and David were so easy to root for, and I was cheering Kenzie on to overcome her preconceptions. Though I'll admit that I can totally relate to Kenzie's yearning for structure and a (seemingly) simple framework to help navigating her life, misguided as it might be in her case.

I also loved getting to know David's and Kenzie's families and friends, and I thoroughly enjoyed the banter and the family dynamics.

Overall, this was a sweet and funny (and clean) read that might have kept me up past my bedtime a time or two.
