I tried reading an Abby Jimenez book because I kept seeing it on my social media. But, honestly, I did not enjoy reading this book. I always find myself annoyed at every chapter and reading it felt like almost a chore. It was also so predictable, I was just halfway through and I already knew what would happen next– and I was right at all my guesses. What I enjoyed was the characters, they were lovable– however, I still think that some of the chapters are cliche because the characters are so unrealistic. I'm very sure I'll never find a man as patient, understanding, and attractive as Josh; it was almost as if reading about him made it obvious that the character was written by a woman because no real man could possibly think or act like him HAHAHA.
