I have been sleeping on this quirky adult rom-com for far too long because I freaking adored this.
Is the premise rather out there with some wacky characters that you can’t help but become endeared to? Yeppers.
Leon was a fucking dreamboat.
Watching Tiffy take control of her life in the face of a freshly ended emotionally abusive relationship was so fulfilling.
And all of the supporting cast fit their roles to a T.
I even dipped my toe into the audiobook near the end and then had to go back and listen to parts that I had already read because the narrators were that good.
This hit me in all the feel-good places that I needed it to when I picked it up, so if you want a mood-boost read of the romance variety this is a perfect choice.
