3.55 AVERAGE


Quick chick lit book that hit home as a twenty something navigating career and friends and love!

Reads like a poorly written fan fiction. Has the emotional depth of a middle school or AI author.

As someone who used to work in a similar environment, I understand where Nicole comes from with having to balance life and work. She’s relatable, but her faults make her a bit unlikable. She doesn’t stick up for herself against her best friends’s wedding party or her coworkers. Her justifications for a promotion are underwhelming.

I do think this book is a good example of our toxic culture to put ourselves last and work first.

This was good. It didn’t feel like a romance but more like a woman discovering there’s more to life than being shrouded by anxiety….which I relate to

Another one where I don't think I'm the right demographic. Also, at a time when work and life ARE stressful, I didn't want to spend time in somebody else's stressful work/life situation.

Some good messages

Overall a nice, easy-to-read story. It was relatively easy to connect with the main character and somewhat predictable how the next chapters would play out.




This was entertaining. Easy read to fly through. Predictable and the main character annoyed me a bit towards the end when I just wanted her to get over herself. But overall it was an easy nice entertaining read.

I probably related to Nicole’s work relationship more than I care to admit
