Made it this far, but it's a slog. Both main characters are still acting like adolescents. GROW UP, ffs. I hate the word "quirk" as a verb. Three times already. Head hopping chapters are driving me nuts; Mitch sounds like Faith. There's no conflict. But way too many characters!!! I may quit.

Made it to p. 70, but that's all I can handle. This isn't a romance novel; it's a series of therapy sessions, with two immature 30-somethings who can't/won't talk to each other so they're talking to me, the reader. There's no angst, no conflict, no emotion, none of the good stuff that belongs in a romance. Blech. DNF.

I think the role of Mitch is played by a 12 year old girl.

I'm struggling with this one. He's so handsome. She's so beautiful. Don't they have personalities?? Uh, actually they don't.

Mitch just info dumped all over the page, then got into a conversation with his best friend that's more info dumping. I'm guessing readers don't care?

I'm not crazy about chapters in alternating 1st person POV to begin with, but when there is absolutely no difference in the two voices, it seems a waste of time. "Mitch" sounds just like "Faith" and that's not good.
