already complained about a million other aspects on Goodreads and Instagram so will just add one new thing: there is a uncomfortable level of praising romantic love to the point where it’s not even just implied that your life is a half-life if you don’t have a romantic/sexual partner, but very explicitly stated, which is a viewpoint that I find unfortunate and unhealthy

I thought this was just ok. The first half of the book felt incredibly slow and impersonal. Even through the end I didn’t feel very emotionally attached to any of the characters except maybe Jimmy. The love story (if you can call it that) wasn’t convincing at all and we did not get to see it progress at all it’s just one day they are suddenly in love. Aggie and Gary didn’t seem to be very necessary to the story in my opinion. It was a overall good story but with told in a very surface level way which results in a pretty forgettable book. Also why is it even called early morning riser? I may have missed that somewhere in the story I admit I listened to it on audiobook and may have not paid attention at some crucial moment or something
