This is an enjoyable bit of fluff. Even though it’s quite dark, the unrealistic storyline keeps it from feeling possible, and therefore it isn’t heavy.

Absolutely nothing about this worked for me. The humour wasn't funny, the characters had no personality, the plot twist was ridiculous. A lot of it felt like it was written to be quoted on twitter.
