I'm so proud of Ali Hazelwood for writing something with a different plot, even if it does have the same two characters (basically). And this one had a way better villain than usual!

Cattiness aside, I liked this book quite a bit. I appreciated the exploration of the protag's mental states - she felt like a whole, complicated person, even if I couldn't relate to a lot of what she was going through. The ML was a bit flatter, but it's a romance novel, so if the men are anything other than supporting and loving and endowed we're not really doing it right.

Overall, glad I read it, and happy to have it on the shelf.
