Eh. Cute and super fun. Great romcom “vibes,” but was it written super well? Not really. I know we don’t read romcoms for reality, but sometimes some of the things the characters would do or their thoughts/rational was so unhinged, it took me out of the story. But still an enjoyable read. Some one-liners had me crying I was laughing so hard. If you like open door, light-hearted, funny, dorky romcoms with a tiny bit of spice, this is your book.
