Let me start by saying this was an okay book. Some might really enjoy it. It fell really flat for me and the only way I can sum up my issues with it is this: FORCED.
I love, love, love that Smartypants romance makes an effort for inclusion across all lines! But the inclusive part of this story seems very forced. It's thrown in there for effect and to meet a quota. It just doesn't feel very natural. Also forced is the humor. The scene with the Ben-wa Balls was easy to spot a mile away and served absolutely no purpose to the story other than being shoved in for some forced antics...? Not only was it not funny for me, but it was also not plausible.
I'm sorry, but this book just didn't do it for me.
