I did enjoy the road trip vibes of the novel and the fact that it  had characters that aren't your typical golden retriever types. I wish the romance between Elsie and Rose had been developed a little more because there were times that I lowkey forgot why Millicent was going to Key West in the first place. Hollis being a little shady fit with his character but I still wasn't sure how they got from begrudging car buddies to sex buddies less than five days of being in each other's presence. That was ... odd. I also was a little confused on how people kept recognizing Millie despite the fact that she was only on one kid's show. I feel like that was a little too unrealistic / far fetched.
