Blew away my expectations. Funny and interesting from the jump, but I wasn’t expecting it to be so moving. I cried at least twice, and the resolution of each character’s arc felt exactly right and never overplayed. Really, really enjoyed this.

A heart warming story about moving forward after loss and embracing who you are unapologetically.

This book was a nice, light-hearted read. It had a great premise, but it was lacking something that I can't put my finger on. It took me a while to finish because I felt bored reading and never had the incentive to keep reading once a chapter was over. Overall, not a bad read and certainly an easy one, but not one of my favorites.
