What a read. It felt long. Drawn out. It wasn't really a romance. It felt like a long feminist rant saying eff the patriarchy. I mean I'm there. I'm with it. But it got a bit repetitive at times. I liked the magic of the last chapter and could have seen things drawn out over longer than say a day. It was a lot to cram into a day.

It also felt very let's check these boxes. Gay BFF check, supportive bfff check, great boss check but no real side character development
