I must say I'm a little confused about how this book has such a high rating—not because it's bad or anything, but because it feels seriously incomplete. It's not even a first act so much as... a lot of exposition, and then it ends. Like, I read 98% of this in one sitting on a not-even-that-long flight. I'm fine with serialization, but Emma M. Lion Vol. 1 felt like it needed at least another hundred pages before I could even form an opinion. Like who even is this Emma broad? Narrator? I hardly know er!

So... 3 stars because the jury is still out. They're still so far out they haven't even asked for the check at the brunch restaurant.

(Also not the clergyman character being a hot young Coolguy. Tell me the author is Mormon without telling me the author is Mormon. It's giving youth pastor who raps)

Truly loved this. It was very short and still in the beginning I though nothing would happen in the book at all. But by the end I was very invested indeed. The writing style is funny and lighthearted, even though the subject is sometimes sad. All the characters were marvellous and there is even some mystical elements to it. Really a great read and I cannot wait to read what happens next.

This was cute and entertaining - I enjoyed it enough to want to continue the series, but there wasn't enough in this first volume to have any strong feelings or opinions.
