2025 REVIEW:
overall the story is four stars for me. i love the fan fic-y ness of the writing (makes it addicting) and how we have multiple povs. the plot twists are rlly fun to read and guess and rowell writes entertaining banter. overall the story is a four star read but the audiobook specifically is five stars all around. the narrator was fucking PHENOMENAL- he did different voices and for the more emotional bits he almost made me cry, and i’ve never cried over this book before, even having read it twice. the lucy bit? crying at work. the narrator was the best part and made the story so much more fun and i want him to now narrate everything to me, please and thank you.
2021 REVIEW:

but reminder that rainbow rowel is an awful person so let’s not support her my friends; get her books from a library:)
