This book is marketed as a romance/humour novel, but I did not find it particularly funny, and the romance was next to non-existent. Two characters with little chemistry kissing does not mean it is a romance. In reality, this book focuses on one character's chronic anxiety, something which should have had a warning for those suffering from anxiety.
I couldn't connect with Kat, the main character, she felt quite rude, immature and irresponsible. The book consisted almost entirely of her inner monologue on her anxiety, and something about the author's depiction of anxiety did not sit well with me, although I cannot pinpoint exactly what it was.
Overall, this book was too repetitive, marketed misleadingly, and therefore sadly not for me.
Thank you to the publisher, author and NetGalley for sending me this arc.
