I loved the concept and the way the author wrote but I found the main character very frustrating. There were too many moments where she just seemed to lack common sense though I know she was supposed to be a little out of her element.

The concept was great and her writing was provocative but I could not stand the main character. She’s meant to seem intelligent and independent but came off as a ditsy damsel in distress to me. It ruined a lot of the book for me and parts were very predictable.
