This book should have easily been a 3 or 4 star read, but it just really really wasn't. I didn't like the main characters at all, except maybe Lou once I found out she wasn't really cheating. But the whole book you think she is and I can't STAND cheating tropes. So the book was already a goner and by the time they reveal she's just foreplaying with Sven, it's too late. It's tainted. So, I didn't like it. I wish we had more time with Nick, because everyone else just really really sucked. Except for Rich the Bastard. And while the story's main focus was on Bibi's, Esther's, and Lou's friendship, I feel like there was this manic obsession of the mission and a lack of communication amongst them that felt so frustrating. I just think it was so oddly written and then when the book was wrapping up, everything just had an explanation...and if it was so easily explained, why the heck were they so concerned about not sharing it or explaining it?
Really didn't like it. Kinda sucks.
