Reviewed by MarieWell, this was definitely the most boring and repetitive book in this series.
Reviewed by luisaInsgesamt war die Geschichte süß für zwischendurch, unterhaltsam und flüssig zu lesen. Besonders die Grundidee hat es mir sofort angetan – sapphic fake dating, Theater und eine Romance-Autorin als Hauptperson, was will man mehr? Aber leider gab es ein paar Aspekte, die mich gestört haben. Die absolut valide Entscheidung von Iris, keine festen Beziehungen zu führen, wird als ein Problem dargestellt, das es zu lösen gilt. Dass Stevies Generalized Anxiety Disorder eine große Rolle spielt ist toll & so wichtig, aber ihre Persönlichkeit besteht wirklich ausschließlich aus dieser Diagnose, was ihr meiner Meinung nach nicht gerecht wird. Zu guter letzt noch die Diversität – es gibt einige Nebencharaktere, die trans* und/oder BIPOC sind und prinzipiell freut mich das natürlich! Über die meisten von ihnen erfährt man aber nie mehr als bloß die Hautfarbe und Geschlechtsidentität. Für mich leider eine Enttäuschung, was super schade ist, denn Potenzial war da!
