It took me a lot longer to finish than I had thought, but that’s mainly because I found it hard to get into.
I enjoyed the concept of the book. However, I felt that it fell short in its execution.
I could partially relate to the FMC but not enough that I felt invested in knowing more about her or her hobbies ETC. She had a bad habit of repeating herself or actions. “He’s so cold to the touch,” “he’s so attractive,” “placed my hand where his heartbeat would’ve been.” Yes, we get it…
The MMC was more tolerable, but I feel that is basically because the book is written completely in our FMC’s POV.
I did not enjoy the ending, or the last few pages leading up to it.
I feel the author wrote herself into a situation she wasn’t sure how to get herself out of, and it just felt flat. Although the story ties off almost all the aspects of the story, it always just feels like they didn’t all intertwine well with each other, but that may also have been because of my inability to become in invested in the story.
For those who want to know which piece I felt was not tied off please see below:
Overall, not the best but not the worst.
Based off of the writing and storytelling I don’t think I’ll be picking up this author again.

The book also could have used some editing. In particular I found the timeline confusing at best and even contradictory a few times.

“also need to borrow your little plastic money card thing one last time.”
“Everything I have heard about the internet makes it sound like a cancer upon the modern world. I am not certain I want it.”
“He might be an undead creature of the night - but as undead creatures of the night went, he was a marshmallow.”
“Over my dead body.”
“That’s easy enough to arrange,”
“By the time you knew what I really was, I wanted you to think I was impressive. Not just some clueless accidental kumquat conjurer.” LOL
