I find it difficult to rate this book. While I did enjoy it and found it very readable, the characters were not that likable and I didn’t find myself rooting for anyone. It was nice to see slight growth in them, but it was hard to take that growth seriously. I couldn’t tell if the author wanted us to think them sincere. Overall, it was a fun and easy read but I wish it hard a bit more heart to balance out the “rich people problems” trope.
