this was really enjoyable! i personally would have ditched charley though (the ghosting and game-playing doesn’t really do it for me). really the most enjoyable thing about this book was amy’s career trajectory, which is what i think kept me reading—i enjoyed seeing her business grow and her ability to find a career that makes her happy and fulfilled. it sounds like a lot of fun!
the whole gay marriage aspect of the book was a little heavy-handed, and it’s hard to feel the urgency when you know it eventually gets legalized. however, who knows, that right could be revoked under the current administration… okay no more thinking for today :)
