I thought Problematic Summer Romance was a good read overall fun characters and some sweet moments. But it felt a bit too long and drawn out in parts. The pacing could’ve been tighter, but if you enjoy slow-burn romance with a sprinkle of chaos, it’s worth the read!

Ali has created characters that I truly adore and a romance that both breaks my heart and mends it at the same time. To be honest, age-gap romances are usually my least favorite, but Ali has managed to make me love this dynamic. I found myself rooting for Maya and Conor throughout the entire book. Their romance is portrayed as both forbidden and beautiful, and it is communicated so effectively. I never felt that their relationship was inappropriate; in fact, I loved it. I always devour her books, and they have never disappointed me. I highly recommend this read for anyone looking for a blend of humor and a heart-wrenching romance.

Smut? 100/10!! Story line? 6/10. Didn’t love the flashbacks, but overall I appreciate how they fed into the story. Use of big, fancy, super smart, googleable words? 8/10, I had to google many of them. His accent? 0/10, gave me the biggest ick. To add: I have never been the biggest fan of Ali Hazelwood’s writing (sorry super lovers) but overall this was a good book and I thought it read as fast paced. Good summer read!
