RTC! Five stars for the absolutely stellar premise and characters, three stars for the long-winded, unnecessarily extensive descriptions. And two stars for all the typos?? (please hire me as your copy editor, thanks !!)

I enjoyed this overall :) however i did think this book was significantly longer than it had to be and also I didn’t feel as connected to the characters as I expected to be and probably because of that (as well as being insanely busy the last few weeks) it took me like a month to read this lol - especially cause this is a mostly character driven book and not connecting to the character definitely lessened my enjoyment significantly 
But ya solidly a 3 (or so) star book probably which is kinda disappointing cause I thought I’d love it but 🤷🏻‍♀️
