This book was pretty lackluster. Though I really liked Vlad, I found Elena to be a little flat. I also found that all of the secondary characters didn't resemble actual people and instead felt like one-dimensional caricatures with repetitive schticks. 

The dialogue between male characters also felt clearly like a woman trying to write idealized, "woke" men. Again, they just didn't talk naturally and so many scenes felt inorganic.  

There were parts that were funny and sweet, but I don't think this book was a winner.
