I suggest reading this in small chunks over a relatively long period of time, otherwise it gets too repetitive and therefore boring. The short stories were well written and informative however a wider range of topics regarding orgasms could have been covered (the potential is limitless and I felt the selected essays only covered a small part of what can and should be discussed). Nevertheless, it was an enjoyable read, especially because I took my time reading it. 

This was the first friends to lovers romance I've read and honestly I had no idea how much I would enjoy this trope. 

at times it was hard to read this book because i found it boring. however there are some lines that were beautifully written which made the read worth it.
i found the main character to be funny and her passing comments on british colonialism and its effects were interesting, although i wish this theme was explored more in depth.
the author used a lot of fancy words which i sometimes found unnecessary.
it did remind me of sally rooney, in its themes and characters but rooney's writing style feels less distant/cold (surprisingly!)
if it weren't for those witty one-liners, i would have DNFed this book but I did enjoy my reading experience overall.

I could not put this book down ! I loved it so much I read it in under 3 hours.
