Feels like an ending to the series. 

Knowing there is another book makes me feel like we are about to enter into a “Toy Story” situation where the third is perfect, but then the fourth throws it all away requiring a 5th.

The pace was slower than the previous but that third act? I could not turn the pages fast enough.

I read this arc has part of Camp NetGalley 2025.

What would you do if you thought you only had days or hours left? Becky decides to blow up her entire life. But it may have been exactly what she needed.

P.S. You’re the Worst is a very witty book and while all of the circumstances may not be entirely relatable, I think any woman nearing 30 has had many of the same thoughts and feelings as Becky; feeling like you are not living up to your 5 year plan being stuck in your job, and/or your relationship. 

Becky of this story reminded me of another “I didn’t think this all the way through” Becky from one of my favorite book series, Confessions of a Shopaholic. Both of our leads just happen to be in London too!

P.S. You’re the Worst is a coming of age of sorts, set in the present day. This book is light, airy and a quick read that shows sometimes in order to move forward you have to act like you might die tomorrow.

Dare I say this might be my favorite in the series. Jen has toned down her snark in her emails and has let her holier-than-though persona drop a bit which I think makes her much more likable.

This one packs the most punch of the series and leaves you in the most suspense. From start to finish this book is a page turner, no lulls, no infuriating stubbornness from Violet towards Xaden. This book answers some questions while leaving with you so many more. Rumors have it the fourth one be out until at least 2027 (at least!!) Say it isn’t so! I need more now!
