It was a slow start very dragging up until chapter 10ish, then the plot actually begins, I found that the characters I hated with a passion became my favorite at the halfway point of the book. It has its issues (being problematic and such) but the story is incredibly captivating

Did this book take me a unreasonable amount of time to finish? Yes. But was it also very cute and a good distraction from the trauma that’s about to happen in the next book? Also yes.
