About halfway through this book I looked to see if this was written before or after McQuiston's other work, Red, White, and Royal Blue. To my complete shock this was written after RW&RB. Comparatively the pacing in this novel is all over the place, the first half drags on and on, then the pacing becomes okay, and then the end feels very rushed. While I enjoyed the concept I think the execution was way off. This has not put me totally off reading more of her work as I think they are fun palette cleansers in between heavier reads but I will be quicker to DNF.
