I am really torn about this one.
The premise was promising and the first 40% of the book was engaging and intriguing. I appreciated the writing style, it was engrossing and easy to follow. However the characters fell flat, there was a bit too much of an agenda as well and it did not sit well with me.
Not to mention towards the end the FMC was grating on my nerves. No character growth for her in my opinion and honestly I found her insufferable. I did not like the remaining 60% unfortunately.
This said, I still think a lot of people would find it enjoyable as it is indeed low-stakes, lighthearted, quick read.
Overall 2.5 stars for me.

This one was enjoyable, I liked the humour in it and the writing style.
The concept was interesting as well and something I have not read before. Which as a novelty to me was appreciated.
Although this said the characters were flat and I did not find anyone interesting nor someone I was particularly fond of. I just couldn't relate to any of them.
Overall 3 solid stars and I still recommend it. Review of advanced copy received through NetGalley.
