This was okay, the characters were all pretty similar but their relationships are what propels the story. I never really understood what Cohen's problem was other than his being in love with Brett, I kind of thought he'd be more of a plot device but the level of scandal isn't overexaggerated in this book (which I don't think is a bad thing, just not what I was expecting). 

I enjoyed the European backdrop and relearning about Los Sanfermines, really brought me back to my A-Level Spanish days 😂

English teachers would have a field day reading this one out loud - (there are a lot of slurs).
