Adorable, welcoming, a story that whispered " belonging and acceptance " all the way ❤️

"Thank you so much for putting this story out into the world. It's so damn rare to witness the unraveling of a disability in real time with this much care, nuance, attention, presence, empathy, observation and the research and time you clearly put into it. I myself am disabled and it means a lot, lot to me to see other Disabled stories and disabled lives navigating life in our world. Jade and Aidan and the Luigi's and the whole friend group were all so terrific, warm hearted people who didn't give a fuck about stigma and biases - hio hip hurray to Jolly the Jelly Fish 🥳"

Gosh, so funny and sweet

"Very sweet little story. Their humour together got me giggling. I especially appreciated the way the Tourette’s was actually written, it was jarring and distracting at the beginning, but by the middle you were able to gloss over it and just see what he was saying (replicating the in-person experience very well!). I’d love if this became a series of books of other relationships overcoming barriers. Well done! 👏"

I freakin' Adore this Story!

"Like the title says, 100% sums it up! I honestly can't think of a single negative/constructive crit type thing to say (that's 2 books in a row for me, differ authors, not applicable to this review though, I guess). Beautiful plot, smooth flow, & the MCs are messily wonderfully real. I seriously enjoyed every single chapter. I had tears, I laughed my arse off, I smiled so much. This is a sweet freakin story. I loved the idea of it being clean (no sex scenes, love it, wish it was more of a thing) when I started it. Then when I reached the chapter after their first night together & she was remembering, I had to pause & back track bc I thought I somehow missed a chapter. Not because I wanted details, but because having them is usually a thing. So when it clicked that this is actually clean, it was seriously like a breath of fresh air. On the other side, clean is a little muddy because its mouthy, which isn't always something I'm a huge fan of, but it works so well. It's mouthy without being, i dont know...vulgar? idk. It really does work with the story. I am super glad I found this story! Thank you for sharing it!"

An excellent story that contains some profound themes.

"This is an excellent book that can get the reader thinking about themes like how individuals who face challenges that might make some folks uncomfortable are just as valuable as everyone else is. I’ve read the first chapter of this story so far and am really enjoying it, and I look forward to reading the rest of this book!..."
