First 20% was promising but then it all fell apart because you can see what’s coming from miles away and that is exactly what happens. Zero surprises. Zero believable plot. Zero quality romance. If it’s supposed to be a modern magical Harlem fairytale, then it’s not a very good one because I just rolled my eyes most of the time. There was no depth in this book, neither emotional nor plot wise. And I need at least one of those two to enjoy a book. But hey, I did finish it. It had some nice banter. I aspire to be like Ms. Della when I am old. I love a girl who wants to build her own life, away from family expectations. Just cut this crap of becoming instant besties with some celebrity or instant soulmates at first sight, okay?

I think this would have been a cute short story? Too long, too predictable.
