This Won't End Well by Camille Pagán

This book is a great read for someone who wants to see real life issues mixed with comedic relief. The FMC had her stand-up moments and her not so stand-up moments. Her internal dialogue was extremely relatable, albeit sometimes on the immature side. How she goes about solving issues didn’t make much sense to me, but it provided some much needed “no tension” sort of plot. I didn’t love how the plot seemed to split into multiple storylines that I wish we would’ve seen more of, and the trauma dumping from one of the secondary characters close to the end confused me. I didn’t see how it added any substance to the story and it made me feel like the author had a random burst of inspiration for how to explain the reason behind the character, but it didn’t mesh well with the overall objective. I appreciated that our FMC stood up for herself and had that strength to say what needed to be said and keep moving forward. However, I was confused when it came to her relationship…the math just was not mathing 😂 Either way this was a fun one to listen to!
