The first half of the book had some great comedic moments, but sadly they weren't enough to carry the book. The 'villian' character (the boss) was pretty flat and lifeless, and the romance felt sidelined almost completely — I really don't think the book would have lost much if the romance had been cut completely, which was disappointing because it had a promising set-up. I wish I could have liked this book more—I think a few more rounds of editing and this could have been a really solid comedy. (Marketing-wise I wish this had been portrayed as a comedy rather than a romance.) Lastly, I wish the author had consulted some actual developers! The wild inaccuracies regarding coding and development were pretty cringy.
