I really enjoyed this book, right up until almost the end 😅
This would have been 4 stars but the ending irked me so much that I just couldn't.

Ending spoiler

When Nora was on her last book and it was with Ash and Molly. The whole thing felt to me like a woman would only be her happiest self with husband and a child. 
Yes she ended up going back to her root life eventually but just how it was written annoyed me a lot. I don't think it was meant to come off like that but :shrug:
