This was fine I guess. I feel like overall it was very meh and was very clearly written by a man (not to an egregious level but it was definitely present throughout). Definitely a pallete cleanser for me and not actively bad but I don't see myself recommending it. I was hoping for more heist planning and less of whatever this was.

Oh my God this book!! What an emotional rollercoaster of drama, betrayal and comedy! Would highly recommend to anyone who is a fan of heist plots, romance or contemporary comedy books.
