Late Bloomer was one of my most anticipated releases of 2024, so I was HYPED when I saw it was read now. It's not just that Mazey Eddings has cemented herself as one of my favourite authors, but also that this is her first sapphic book, it's autistic x neurodivergent, and the synopsis just sounded AMAZING.

There's never a better way for me to recharge than with a book, and I needed a break, so I started reading this before bed, and then I just... inhaled the whole thing. Yes, I went to sleep too late, but who even cares, right?

I had SUCH a good time with this! It's the most lighthearted Mazey Eddings book so far, I would argue, and it's so sweet and so funny. I loved both Opal and Pepper, but especially Opal stole my heart. I could easily picture her as the star of a sitcom or something similar.
