Considering this book was $5, it was insanely good. I really enjoyed the writing style and it kept me hooked.

I did not enjoy reading this. I found the main character annoying, the actual romance rushed and a lack of development of side characters. It was also millennial coded, in that it used a lot of millennial phrases, worst of all being “doggo” and “pupper”.
