Great Read
This was an enjoyable read. This is Lily Chu’s third book that I read and I really liked it. In this book, we meet Dee Kwan, our female lead, who is a people pleaser. She works as a consultant and was tasked to resolve a scandal within the fashion company, Celeste. This book was great. I thought Dee was a great character. In the beginning, I thought her personality was a bit boring, but then she transformed as the story progressed. Gone was the people pleaser, and here arrived a more confident Dee. A person who knows her true worth and that was special to read/listen to. Philippa Soo did a fantastic job narrating this story. I thought Teddy was another great character. I thought that they had real chemistry and it really showed through. I am not wait to read more books by Lily Chu. She writes her stories with lessons that can inspire us. In this book, she tackled misogyny at work, racism at work, and toxic positivity (people pleasing). I cannot wait to read her next book. Overall, a great read.

The toxic positivity Dee starts the book with was just too much for me.
