Okay, first off - Lucy Score has ruined me for all other romance books. Story of My Life isn't just a book, it's a whole VIBE. I devoured this in one sitting and now I'm emotionally attached to fictional people.

The grumpy-sunshine dynamic between Hazel and Cam? *chef's kiss* I swear my Kindle overheated from their chemistry. That slow burn had me kicking my feet like a teenager.

Special shoutout to Goose the bald eagle - the real MVP of Story Lake. Who knew a bird could have so much personality? I want Goose merch now.

As someone who's never picked up a hammer in my life, this book made me weirdly excited about home renovation? Cam's contractor skills awakened something in me ngl.

The found family aspect wrecked me in the best way. The Bishop family dinners had me nostalgic for a family I've never had. Can I get adopted please?

Pro tip: Do NOT read the fake dating scenes in public unless you're cool with random giggle fits. The banter is next-level hilarious.

Only complaint? Now I'm obsessed with a fictional town and low-key considering moving to Pennsylvania. Thanks for that, Lucy Score.
