I honestly don’t know how to feel about this book, I liked some aspects of the book but I couldn’t get myself to like the main character Eddie. She felt annoying, childish, careless and thoughtless. She couldn’t make one good decision and took everyone down with her, even her best friend. I would have much rather read the story from the perspective of Rose and Albert who are more mature and actually make smart decisions for themselves. I don’t see how any 22-year-old would be as stupid as Eddie, regarding interpersonal interactions, but at the same time write such a powerful book about interpersonal interactions. I think this book probably works for people that like to read YA which is not me and I wasn’t expecting it to be more a YA book since the main character is 22… I can’t say that this book was terrible, as I loved the historic setting, I really enjoyed that Eddie is a writer and all the friends she made and the interesting people she was surrounding herself with but I just can’t get myself to care for characters acting in the kind of way Eddie does.

Alternative Title: What not to do when you meet your childhood hero.

(Shout-out to my girl Rose and Albert for being the only two sensible people in this entire story)

Nash is insufferable. Also sort of wish this was in first person from Eddie’s POV

listen…this book was not my cup of tea however i continued to persevere. and boy am i glad i did !! after about 100-200 pages in i was a goner. i had to finish the book. eddie pissed me off most of the time, but once i was 3/4 of the way through the tables were turning. absolutely hate nash and all men like him. i knew what would happen from the beginning and i was still fuming once it was revealed.
