This is one of the funniest books I have read and never did I expect that spot to be taken by a classic novel. Regardless, this was one slow, slice of life type of journey. Again, the humour is incredible and the fact, that it is still so relatable in current contexts is what adds to the laughs.

At first, I was skeptical about this book. Not because I haven't read romance in a long time but because it felt the story was trying to be too self-aware while falling in the pits of its own strong archetypes. However, the end chapters really turn it around in some ways. It's sweet, real and Nora as a character is carved out quite well. I couldn't put it down towards the end and it left me with a smile.
