Overall a good vacation-type book that you don't have to think about much, is mostly enjoyable, and is an easy read. That said, the twist at the end and the last few chapters kind of ruined the book for me. It very much came out of nowhere and seemed like an easy out to quickly wrap up the story. Additionally, some of the descriptions of sex/ attraction were really off-putting. Not sure if that was an active choice but the author for the sake of the storyline or just a poor writing style, but it was definitely uncomfortable, especially to listen to on the audiobook. Until the last couple chapters, a pretty decent book though if you need something to keep you busy and capture your attention.
