Happy reading, friend!
Well written review, Yun. I see why it was a three star read. You’ve really done a nice job describing how an author knocking it out of the park at the onset but failing to close as strong at the end.
I completely agree! I thought it was a five star read for the first half, such a good different funny idea. Then the second half was just so out there and Lauren became annoying and whiny.
Yun...sorry this rudderless, twilight zone of a read left you wanting! Your excellent review, however, was a delight to read!💜

Excellent review, Yun. Such great insights as to why this book did not work. I decided to pass and it looks like I made the right decision.
Excellent review as ever Yun, this is another reason why I rarely read book blurbs, they give expectations!

Thanks, Baba! Haha, true. :)
Fabulous review, Yun💞!!!!!!!! I'm sorry this book wasn't the greatest, but I'm glad you still somewhat enjoyed it😘😘!!!!!!!!!
Wonderful review Yun! From reading your reviews for a while now, I believe I would feel the same about this book, so thank you! 👏
I've read similar comments from other readers. Meanwhile, if I get sent to attic, that's fine -- I'm sure I'll find plenty to do up there.
Fabulous review, Yun! What a fun premise! Too bad the excution was lacking. I hope you love your next read!

Thanks, Meredith! Fingers crossed!
Interesting. I went through 1/3 of this and lost interest. It started off great, like maybe a pitch for a high concept movie.
That's a good premise, no doubt! But not all creative ideas lead to satisfying books, and the mixed reviews this one is getting proves it. Too bad it wasn't better because it did seem to have a lot of potential. Great review, Yun! :)

Everything's being turned into a movie/tv series these days, and maybe this will too lol. :)

Thanks, Rosh! For sure!
Great review, Yun! The premise does sound interesting! Sorry it didn't quite live up to its potential in the end.
Yes, the premise sounds interesting but, at its core, there needs to be some substance, A rudder, at least an oar!!! Sorry this doesn't pan out.
