Really cute and weird and funny and totally different, just not 100% my style. The irreverent writing and bordering on fantastical plot often made it difficult for me to get into fully. I would almost call this more women's fiction than a romance, while we do get a HEA, it's the storyline that actually offers the least tension and suspense throughout. I did like Meddy's arc throughout the book, she begins to assert both herself and others in a really cool way without ever 'ruining everything' as some heroines do when placed in much less crazy circumstances!
