The contrast between the sex scenes and the plot was a bit unexpected. Lots of sex scenes. Not a lot of plot or character development.

Just so good.

The characters are good AND the plot through-line is good and it's just such a good read.

Also just TOP tier spice. The phone scene and the after party scene are just so well written.

I will say that the characters' flaws and growth aren't a real focus. Gigi's might be, but it's their relationship that grows and changes more so.

I do wish this book print was a bit prettier but the US version is at least more attractive than the UK one.
