Thanks to Carina Press for the free copy of this book.
- There is so much to love in A LITTLE KISSING BETWEEN FRIENDS. Friends to lovers! Great banter! Black love! Stud representation! Super spicy scenes! S3x work treated as real work!
- I loved both Cyn and Jucee. Higgins is so good at characterization: both women and their friends and family felt like people you could know in real life.
- I unfortunately had real trouble with the third act breakup, though. !SPOILERS! It comes about because of a biphobic statement that seems to come out of nowhere and not fit with the world of the book. Then the characters discuss it to death with their circles, but when they finally talk to each other it’s quite nearly just glossed over for love.
