Can’t get over how much I loved and appreciated this book. It had a real cleansing effect on me - I needed to read this so badly. Holly speaks for me completely, and I can’t wait to recommend this book to all my friends. I saw someone on Twitter descibe this book as ‘Bridget Jones for Today’ and I was skeptical, but now I’ve read it, I’m 100% a believer.

I really liked this, but it was also really hard to read. This was not a feel-good book (at least not to me) so I had to decide carefully when to read it, because it felt so real and made me feel quite melancholy. It made me feel really bad what Tori was doing, and all the descriptions of details what she was thinking made me feel even a bit sick, because that is what we do. I really liked this, but also I would have wished the book would have shown more of her story, because it felt like the ending was just the beginning. And I want to see what Tori will do next!
I haven't read a book in a span of 24 hours in a very long time.
This did not have the most likable protagonist, but she struggled with issues we all know (especially with turning 27 in a few days). Very real and - for me - relatable.

I have pretty mixed feelings about this book.
I did enjoy it, but I didn't love it.
I didn't particulary like the MC, but I guess that was the point of this book.
All the things we read about in "How do you like me now" are funny just because they're true - men wanting an applause for not being assholes, people thinking that you career is irrelevant unless you have a kid, people telling you "you'll understand when you have your own" like wanting a kid is a given.
I liked the MC's journey, but idk, something about this book just didn't resonate with me. I guess the MC being passive and so hung up on her asshole boyfriend just annoyed me, but I think situations like that happen more often thn I think.

I f*cking loved this book!! though I’m a woman in my 40’s I could still relate to the story. Gutsy main character Tori who I really really liked. Would highly recommend, I couldn’t put it down.
This book took me by total surprise. I started it thinking I couldn't possibly finish, Tori represents everything about the online influencer community I despise. Oh how this changed though! She became more human, less polished and I literally could not put this book down. Very relatable and very enjoyable. Actually had me laughing out loud at points.
