It was cute, but overall I didn't feel super invested. Nareh stressed me out sometimes, and Erebuni felt too perfect, and the other suitors and some other secondary characters felt like they were designed to be shitty so Erebuni could look like the perfect woman:
-Trevor: misogynist, subconsciously racist/xenophobic, didn't seem to pay attention to the person Nareh actually was and what she liked.
-Raffi: misogynist, self obssesed.
-Arek: ok, nothing wrong with him. But Nareh didn't feel attracted to him (which is fair)
-The engineer guy: makes a joke about how he feels pain by proxy when cutting up an eggplant bc eggplant emoji.
-Artur: misogynist.
-Sako: nothing wrong with him either, just gay.
-Ara: self-obssesed, interrupting Nareh every time she talks.
-Kevork: pedantic.
-Kiki: sexist, very conservative, rude, she believes she's better than everyone.
Also, the cover says "From wingwoman to the woman of her dreams", and the synopsis says "Suddenly, with Erebuni as her wingwoman, the events feel like far less of a chore, and much more of an adventure." but there wasn't much wingwoman-ing, and I expected more overall. It ended up being a just-ok book for me, which again, sad about that.

LOVED the start of the book with the horrible proposal, but after skimmin through to the end, nothing really piqued my interest. Not saying this is a bad book, it just wasn't for me.

The scene with the coffee was honestly really good, but it was like 40-50% through the book so it was the sole reason for me not DNF-ing. It was a really sensual and enticing scene that if it had been in another book would have felt at home. But after the scene everything went back to the way it was before.
I also don't normally say this but the side characters were not necessary. There were so many suitors and side friends and I just got so confused.
I also...don't think some of the more serious topics were handled very tactfully. I think it had some really important things it wanted to say that could have been really enhanced through a couple more edits.
A bit disappointed in this one tbh. Like the bisexual MCs but...yeah.
The cover is stunning tho. 10/10
