Really loved this book, but when it got to the climax it felt a bit as an anticlimax. Would have loved a more dramatic climax. But overall it was a lovely book!

Really enjoyed this until the end, which felt super rushed. I appreciate a slow burn, but not when it ends and ties everything up so quickly.

I don't hate phones, no matter how much this book wants me to. That said there are plenty of fun moments and I do love books, which this book does too. However the romance is just cut and past "Pride and Prejudice". I recommend just reading that again instead.
