How do I word this? This one was not my vibe, I wanted to love the camping factor because camping makes me think of Finn Rhodes.
The banter ends as soon as it started, there is more in previous books of the same series.
I feel like you really NEED to read the first two books to get any feel for these characters, if I didn’t already like David somewhat from his previous presence in books 1 and 2, I would have left this unfinished.
Isa was fun enough to hold her own, but man did David go from nice but boring to straight up barely likable.
