this book was pretty good, but not elle kennedys best. the writing felt a little bit disjointed. some aspects of the pacing and characterization just werent great. but im still a sucker for a romance, esp an elle kennedy romance

There’s a little to much chase in The Chase. For most of the book, Fitz earnestly acts like a guy who doesn’t want to be caught. But a little nudity totally solves that and all his other relationship issues, right? 

There was such a great tone of feminism throughout the book, but then there’s some weird shit like admiring a Nazi collaborator, and casual cocaine use.

At first, I was being a total Fitz and taking Summer at surface level - so much so that I considered stoping at about 10%. Then I realized that was unfair, so I gave it a few more chapters and ended up really enjoying Summer as the MFC. Her struggles with ADHD were handled really well and I appreciated the attempt to show her adaptation to alternate learning methods.  

However, while I ended up enjoying probably the first 80%, the last 20% just tanked - everything moved at light speed and it all got wrapped up with a pretty bow much too quickly.

I love the ADHD and neurodivergent representation but other than that the book was fairly average. 

Also why must all these men suck? Yes Summer is hot and rich, doesn’t make her dumb.
