Setting was interesting, I liked the two leads well enough. The side characters' constant sarcasm, edgy quips and threats got pretty tiring, especially when the leads started doing the same. The whole business with the boyfriend was p eye-rolling, too... can we please stop giving bi women shit boyfriends and having the other (usually lesbian) woman lead 'save' her from them? The boyfriend could've just been a close friend or entitled schmuck.
Didn't care for the audiobook much, either. One narrator was pretty good, the other used a constantly edgy whisper-voice that didn't suit a lot of the characters, and rarely changed when characters were shouting or happy, etc.
Probably won't bother with the sequel. If I do it'll be ebook.
