I enjoyed this book way more than I thought I was going to, since the main character is so ditzy at the beginning. But being a product of the 90s, I love Clueless, and this book really gives off those vibes. I did have a few issues with the very NSFW scenes and how most of the last 40% of the book was smut. I enjoy a good scene here or there, but these were graphic cheesy messes that were everywhere. Most of their 4 week relationship is sex, and honestly after thinking about it, there isn't much else to them. Very Insta-Love, and a little bordering on controlling for my tastes, but still fairly enjoyable. I think I'll prefer Hannah and Fox's story. Hopefully.
