3.0

This wasn’t quite the 5 star read I was hoping it would be and I’m scared that means I’m just not a huge fan of Olivie Blake’s writing 🥲 there was SO much filler in this book that I began to get so bored. It’s fine if one or maybe two characters are poetic lyricists but it felt like they all bloody were and that was exhausting. 

I did laugh out loud several times though so this book at least had that going for it. But it definitely took until at least 60% of the way in before I actually understood what was going on. Once I did I enjoyed it but the beginning was a slog.
