Slow at first but gains steam in the second half. I didn’t like the MC Lo and felt her to just be a not nice person. Her attitude about how she treats people just never changes even when her circumstances do. The plot was enough to keep me wanting to know more and that’s what got me through. A fast, summer read that was overall not too bad.

Flat and one dimensional characters. The protagonist is clueless and thinks he’s witty, which he isn’t. The female is nothing more than her looks and overt sex, without any actual qualities to her besides her looks.

Of course by page 87 she “likes” him and things start getting physical. Because this book sucks. Officially a DNF for me.

What the fuck did I just read? 2 hours of my life I will never get back and the fact that a book like this is published by a major publisher is an embarrassment. Nobody should be subjected to this awful “book”. Aside from 2-3 funny lines within it, this book is a giant stinker. I’d give it zero stars if I could.
