DID NOT FINISH
DNF. Made it almost halfway but I was bored to tears. When I found myself skimming over the pages I knew it was a dud. I just couldn’t get in to how quickly Carmen changed her behaviors and soared through the revamp of the shop. And then the “bad boy” Blair was insufferable. The writing was jumpy and the characters were uninteresting.

DID NOT FINISH: 50%
The only relatable character was the elderly man who owns the bookshop. The romance plot was unnecessary and the two men in the love triangle were either awful or boring.
I listened to the audiobook.
