Fun feels like the wrong word to use, but it was a fun premise for a book. Do I wish the sex scenes had just been a fade-to-black instead of flowery descriptions? 100% sex scenes are not this authors, strong suit. But the rest of the book was enjoyable. I don’t know if I could’ve gotten through it reading a print version, but having the audiobook played in the background was enjoyable.
