This was initially a fun silly rom com, but the last third was so irritating to the point that it ruined my initial enjoyment of the book. Once Evie is in a relationship, she seems to forget all of the "women can be independent" stuff she's been telling other characters and the late act break up was so ridiculous it seemed to be shoehorned in because it's expected of the genre, when the conflict of them living in different countries would have been enough.
Really liked the first two thirds, especially the focus on friendship, but unfortunately let down by the ending.
