The voice didn't work for me: I wasn't amused, and when I was dismayed, it was not in a fun or shocking way, but in a bored one. A shallow exploration of shallowness.

I really don't think this book is for me, and yet I had a good time reading it. I did not get it at all but Min is a hilarious narrator and for that it was worth it.

This is one of those books that came into my life at the perfect time. All the quips about dating and men are hilarious and still applicable despite being written in the 60s. Hot girl summer read for sure
