I am ✨underwhelmed✨
I went into this hopeful but I don’t care who Noah Slade is based on, I wasn’t on board at all. In fact, I wasn’t enthralled by any of the characters. I’ve come to the conclusion that Asher is a hit or miss author for me - which is mad considering I fucking ADORED The Fine Print. If it weren’t for those last 75 pages it’d a 2/2.5 - I just wish the romance was fleshed out more and was more believable to back up the ending. Not happy about the ‘exotic looking’ term either.
TWs: car crash, toxic family, child abuse, HP references
