Love love love! Intriguing, funny, page turning, full of heart and hijinks and a delightful juxtaposition of grounded and heightened. I’m going to stop reviewing and start reading the sequel now.

I really really loved this book. The premise is hilarious, I ended up telling pretty much everyone I met up with to read this absolute chaotic mess of a book. Finlay is such a relatable main character, she's so messy and unhinged and weirdly okay with murder, definitely in need of some therapy. Vero was also absolutely amazing, an icon, and such a supportive friend. I definitely got a Thelma and Louise vibe off of their relationship. 
But oh. my. god. I hate Steven so much. He is such a fucking jerk, I low key would not mind if he died. 
The love triangle is also pretty interesting, but I would love it if it ended in a lovely poly relationship between Julian, Nick and Finlay, maybe even Vero too.
