Afraid to say that this one was rough for me. I love and adore her so so much but this story didn’t do it for me. I’m so annoyed but she’s still fantastic.

Really bad in my opinion. Bad writing, bad story, bad characters. The main character Lucy is a really bad person and the rest of the story doesn't redeem that. The disgusting details of her life weren't funny to me so I did not enjoy reading any of the book. Many parts were absurd and the dialogue was simple so ut was quite easy and quick to read.
