Manic Monday, Inc. by Melissa Storm

1.0

I don't believe for a minute Nicole is a social worker, or that she has OCD. I am a real life social worker and all I have to say is *nope*.

I was *aware* that I was reading through the whole book, which is always a bad sign.

Also a bad sign that this very easy read took me over a week and I only finished because I forced myself to.

I think the crux of the issue for me was two part, first, Nicoles career and diagnosis were unbelievable. Second, Storm spends the book telling the reader whats happening, instead of showing the reader. If you know what I mean. This makes it impossible to get caught up in the story.
