For someone who enjoys mkre serious or emotional fiction, I found this so funny and light in parts to read. Greta & Big Swiss as characters are relatable in various ways, the tension between them is magnetic. The sub plots of the dogs, side characters and the strange omnipresent therapist ‘OM’ creates a very dynamic world to escape to. I would’ve given this 5 stars if the ending had more closure and a sense of resolution. I’m left still concerned for Greta & Big Swiss’ wellbeing and how their lives will continue.
