quick and fun and short but just not for me!!! could not deal with the going to the extreme for everything little thing that happened. where was the character development?! it felt like whiplash. when the main character “decides” to quit her job like 5 times, by the 3rd time i’m already rolling my eyes. i also was bugged by the narrative style - too many rhetorical questions posed to the reader!!!! please just narrate!!!!

any scene with Robby or Kennedy….. don’t get me started. the one-dimensionality….. whew…….

in all I don’t think Katherine Center books are my cup of tea but this could def pull you out of a reading slump. definitely in the minority on this one but that’s ok 🫶🏼
