I hate read this book… it was my choice for book club this month so I felt obligated to finish it. But boy did I not enjoy this book. I definitely seem to be in the minority, so I’m glad it’s working for most people. 

I saw the main “twist” from the first 50pgs. I did not appreciate people thinking with their sex drive rather than their brain. The ending was so convoluted & unrealistic. I have so many tabs throughout the entire book noting things that make no sense (to me). 

I dunno… I’m sad it didn’t work for me because so many people love it.
