Review
I have a lot of mixed feelings about this book so bear with me here.
First, this book was not at all what I expected it to be. This added to my mixed feelings as there were lots of good surprises and some I didn’t like as much. One of the good surprises is that this wasn’t the type of Corona love I expected it to be. I thought maybe the two lovers would be quarantined in their homes, unable to see each other in person. Maybe they’d be video chatting a bunch or something along those lines. I was pleasantly surprised to find that wasn’t the case.
The romance in this book was top-notch. I was smiling and laughing and rooting for this wonderful couple the whole book. The two main characters have very distinct and very different personalities. Those two things are part of what makes this book so fun and interesting.
The other side of my mixed feelings comes from a twist, paranormal aspect of this book. I don’t want to say too much about this so as to not give anything away, but it left me wondering why it was included in the book.
Overall, as a romance, I really enjoyed it. As a whole, I’m still trying to figure out where my thoughts lie.

There’s a paranormal twist to this romance book? The only way I could see this working is if the coronavirus was caused by something paranormal
The Book View says
Yeah. That’s a good cause for it.

We had no idea this was a book. We saw the show advertised on Freeform.
The Book View says
I don’t think they’re correlated. I think it was just a coincidence they came out around the same time

Oh wow, that’s strange!

How interesting that a writer has written a coronavirus tale! This is the first timely romance I have seen and I look forward to reading it and seeing how one person sees new relationships vs. my thoughts on the matter! The masks on the cover earn my appreciation . . .
The Book View says
Yes. This was my first Coronavirus read so it’ll be interesting to see how many show up after this

Amazing how an author could publish a book already with a setting similar to our current situation! Thanks for this review – it still sounds interesting, especially for people who like romance genre.

I was thinking the same thing! He must have jumped on the opportunity right when he got the idea for this book.
