Lily Chu is an automatic listen in Audible especially since she’s included in the Audible free books and mostly because it’s a Philippa Soo narration.
Although it’s not as great as the other two books she wrote, I still enjoyed listening to the story unfold. Especially Teddy and Dee’s game night because who loves reading about people playing but us nerds????
They actually tackled some serious diversity problems in this story and it’s nice to see it unfold especially in a fashion industry where it’s not usually being taken into account. And it’s actually my first time seeing a diversity counselor role actually do their jobs. I know it exist, I just didn’t know what they actually do.
