5.0

This was my first read of a Lucy Score book and I greatly enjoyed it. I read it in less than 48 hours because it was the book pick for a bookish weekend lock in. The banter, the dialogue, the personalities, the slow burn, all had me in a choke hold. 

I liked that the characters were in their 40s. It was a refreshing change from the usual MCs being in their early 20s. It’s harder for me to relate to that perspective as someone currently ankle deep in their 30s. 

Every character, minor and main, had their own distinctive personalities that shined through interactions and dialogue. I was literally laughing out loud through out the book. 

I also took the time to make notes and highlights through out the entire book on my kindle. Yes, I was raw with some of my comments (they are literally my instant reaction in that moment). But overall, I enjoyed the book and will definitely read more. I love the author’s writing style. 

**There are exactly 20 references to cheese in this book. 🧀
