Normally I hate dramatized audiobooks, but this was the only audio version of this book I could find. The sounds were mostly distracting for me, but it wasn't too bad. Thankfully, the voice acting was great. I'm not sure I would've found this book as funny as I did without the skill in the delivery.
It's refreshing to get a female lead who is 40 and pretty much sick of everyone's shit. Sometimes it was a bit heavy handed, which felt off because the target audience for this book doesn't need a drawn out explanation of the trials of being a woman in modern society. Let us laugh and cry WITH the protagonist, not sit through a misogyny 101 lesson.
I'd recommend this book if you're looking for a light and funny romance that doesn't try to be something it's not. It's brain candy with magic thrown in. And really, who doesn't want to inherit a creepy magical houseā½
