I never finished this book. In fact, I very deliberately put it down. At the risk of senselessly rewording what prior reviews have said, just go read some of the 1-3 star reviews--they nail it.

I enjoyed this book. I felt like I could relate to Queenie when it came to her dating life and also her anxiety. The way her oncoming panic attacks were described made me remember how mine also felt. I’m happy that in the end of the book the focus was on Queenie and how much progress she made throughout the book and she didn’t need to end up with another man to have a “happy ending”.
