4.5

I really loved the book, and the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because of the lack of diversity of the characters. But This book is both an entertaining romance and a contemplation on writer's block. To be able to laugh along with dialogue one moment and sympathize with the pain of loss in another speaks to the depth of the characters. I think writers will find this book a fun way to jump start on a day of writing, (I struggled between wanting to out the book down to write my own words and to finish the story).
