Lily King is such a master of subtlety and emotion, it takes my breath away how well she writes about the individual while capturing truths about humanity. I love this book.

pretty fun, definitely not what i was expecting at all from king, based on her two other books that I've read. fun premise. a little shlocky at times, edging into melodrama or romance novel territory, but still I very much enjoyed it. loved the male audiobook reader.
