Lucky by Marissa Stapley

2.0

Definitely the vibes and the story beats didn’t quite live up to the concept for me, but this was still a super fun, quick read.

Spoiler

Transparently though I think there was a huge gaping missed opportunity with Lucky’s relationship to her dad. They have one conversation towards the end but it doesn’t have any narrative weight and it feels like the driving force of all the earlier flashback scenes just kind of gets pushed aside. I would have gladly taken another 25 pages to really tie up that loose end.
