Not the best but also not the worst. I found the pace a bit slow overall.

The ending made up for the slow pace of the book. Nova irritated me to no end, but I think that’s because there wasn’t much prior to establish why she’d been holding on to Craig for so long even though he didn’t make her happy. Or why Craig wanted to be with her anyways. Because they were both so different… but the rest of the characters were great and well-developed. Arthur and Phyllis made me happy and I would read a spin off for Phyllis.
