I liked that this book was funny, full of tropes, and tackled some tough topics. 

That said, I felt like it tried to do too much. 400 pages was too long for my liking and the meta-ness didn’t quite hit for me. I liked that it got into industry details. That was fascinating! But the “is this romance or is it women’s fiction” ended up feeling muddled for me overall 

I liked the characters and the mixed media elements (texts, emails) but this one wasn’t a knockout for me personally
