The only theme sufficiently explored in this book is face blindness itself and peripheral relationships (kinship, friendship) are extremely shallow and just serve to push the plot and nothing else. Add to that an annoying step sister who has unfounded hatred for FMC and the book mocking that there are way too many coincidences for a romcom in order to "redeem" itself in a jokingly manner.

It's just a microscopically written and I've seen better romcoms.
