Longer than it needs to be, and eventually Elsie's self doubts get exhausting to keep reading. It is a cute story though (too much academic politicking for my taste, but an interesting semi-realistic glimpse into that world per the author), Elsie is pretty relatable in her desire to please others/code switch, and while I wouldn't want a relationship like Elsie and Jack's, they have a sweet dynamic together.
Graphic: Sexual content
Moderate: Toxic relationship and Cursing
