3.0

Had some moments I loved (banter, side characters, narration) but found that it glossed over the important messages and the ending left me wanting more (but not in a good way).

The first 2/3 of the book was enjoyable, but the central conflict and resolution felt rushed. Overall, I thought the premise was interesting and I liked most of the book! It was a lighthearted romance that touched on important topics.
