The main character was frustrating I found it way too annoying to continue!

3.5,

a nice little juant. i didnt find it too predictable but also not the most memorbale. the boyfriend being such an unlikable character and rorys spinelessness in most spects of her life quite frustrating. not the most relatable.

Great title and kooky cover, which totally captures the essence of Rory.
Sometimes characters, or their actions/choices, are annoying, which means the reader has to be patient, overcome any frustration and hope for the best.
Usually we are rewarded, occasionally not, but there is lots of cleverness in this story and despite any frustrating oblivious moments Rory had, it was all part of her growth and charm...(and this is how I experienced her story).
Loved the puzzling and the rom-com jaunts, and the end twists were so worth waiting for.
