It was a nice read and had some very inspiring moments, but overall it felt a bit surface level and repetitive.

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

This installment of the series was such a delight. It was fun to get to know some favorite side characters even better while Finlay and Vero are up to their typical shenanigans. As always it was witty, ridiculous, hilarious, and somehow relatable. 

Thank you to Net Galley for the audiobook!
