Status Updates From Acts of Kindness

Not sure I like the concept of people being paid to be kind.

This is very much a second half of the game kind of book. The only reason I haven't finished yet is there's been a lot going on, and having other POVs introduced this late in the game after being exclusively Bella for the first half is tripping my brain up a bit. I get why the author did it, though..no room for confusing reader knowledge with character knowledge and all, but it was a bit jarring. Still enjoying.

Slow progress is slow. But the story has picked up in the second half and I haven't abandoned it!

I'm not sure why I'm having a hard time getting sucked into this. The characters are likable and the existence of secret agents of good juju out in the world doing good deeds to inspire good deeds is an idea I wish was a reality even if there was some amount of darkness balancing it. The underlying mystery is a slow...slow....burn. Writing is nicely done, maybe I just need more obvious intrigue..I'm needy and lazy
