Kiss Her Once for Me by Alison Cochrun

The main character is obsessed with Taylor Swift, but like...casually...
"What's your favorite Taylor Swift album, and why is it Evermore"
"Evermore is a Christmas album" .... I mean.
....I came here to have a good time, and honestly I'm feeling so attacked right now with the whole demi/asexual, biromantic, anxiety-ridden mid-20s had a creative dream and kind of stalled at the first sign of a challenge....
They keep talking about a scarf and I keep thinking about All Too Well
It's cute how this was written pre-TicketmasterGate

TS: You're On Your Own Kid, This is Me Trying (also the title makes me think of Paper Rings)

The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun

It's fluffy and it has all the fanfic vibes.
Also. We love great representation of mental illness. Especially the physical symptoms of depression and anxiety/panic attacks, and how it just generally make life difficult. The talking about the stigma around mental illness, in the workplace and in social settings.  
People caring about other people's mental health and just being supportive of it is my favorite. I'm just gonna go cry and think about my friends. 
Also the ace and demi rep is just. My favorite. 
I wish we would have had more of Charlie's backstory, because I love angst, but also like. I love him because he's awkward and adorable and trying his best.
