So, what did I love about The Melody of You and Me? Everything. But here are my top reasons & why you should read it too.

“No, actually, I’m pansexual,” Chris answers.

Chris: I adore her. She’s so real. I feel like I know her. And if I knew her in meatspace we’d be friends. Her problems with collage and life are so relatable. The pressure to have it all figured out early and focusing on criteria other than what makes you happy.

She has views that I couldn’t agree more with; Every time she voiced an opinion I was internally screaming “YESSSS!”

Of course, it’s set around a bookstore so there were recognizable references dropping for happy squee moments. Chris has some great taste.

Right above her desk, a small poster says, Kiss all the pizza, eat all the girls.

Romance: Chris and Josie are great people separately and OMFG adorbs squared together. Chris is the awkward shy one while Josie’s flirty and upfront.

There’s some time jumping so while it’s a novella, it’s not instalove. It’s attraction, friends, and then lovers. It’s perfect. How they’re there for each other and their banter charmed me. They’re compatible and I can easily see this working out. In fact, it’s harder to ever see them split up.

Though you might want to be careful reading this around other people. I started this book when it was slow at work and hit that first sex scene like (embarrassed smiley). But maybe that’s just me.

Progressive as Fuck. Seriously. I cannot wait to read the rest of this series and find out the other characters happy endings!
