Ngl I hated it but for some reason it deserves this rating? The author doesn't create compelling characters, the romance fell a minimum of 134 kilometres short, and the plot wasn't It, but there was something attractive about the book.

Cozy, cute book.
Fetu literally becoming soup aside
I'd make for a great Disney movie. Hanalei (beautiful name btw) certainly gives off Disney Princess vibes!

StoryGraph stopped working when I handed my previous, more-elaborate review so I’ll just say that this was awful <3

This is a book for the mentally challenged. Weak plot, boring characters who were also very stupid, etc. Plus, there were quite a few typos

This book was awful I hated every single character but Vicki (and I’m sure I’d have hated her as well if she had more page time). Also, the author’s use of Tagalog was horrible, apparently, so there’s that. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was true, because the use of the Spanish was not the best. Also also, where in Latam is Rosie from, like????? I feel like the author should’ve at least MENTIONED a country
