Funny and insightful

Will recommend this to my friends. The characters were vivid with distinctive personalities which made them appear so realistic. You rooted for the protagonist in her vulnerability. A story with substance, not all fluff and romance. The narration was easy to listen to and had a lot of emotion in it.

Delightful, witty and charming book!

Worth the listen, the narrator's voice is wonderful and the story has heart. The characters are mostly relatable, kind and fun.
