It was fun and the villain reveal was surprising. I think it was followed with too much explanation which did kill the tension the initial reveal created.
However, it was a cute (although verging on pick-me territory) love story and I appreciated it centring around literature and the concept of being ‘happy enough’. It’s a lovely reminder that anyone’s life can be extraordinary if they want it to be.
