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.
