funny lighthearted relaxing fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

This book is just so much fun! The twist is predictable but that doesn’t make it any less fun!
When we find out Jake and Luca are the same person it felt like the amount of time it took to get there wasn’t as dragged out as I expected! The amount of time Naomi and Luca were mad at each other for did however feel a bit too long for my taste, especially when we got an epilogue that didn’t even last 5 minutes. I can forgive this last point however since it didn’t really wreck my enjoyment of the book.


Also to anyone thinking of reading this book and that doesn’t mind audiobooks: This audiobook is fucking great! Norma Butikofer does a great job as Naomi, I found that her voice really fit the character and did a great job with still making the jokes funny. (Also I found that at 1.8x speed she kinda sounded like Jennifer Lawrence which really fit the character since her humour reminded me of Katniss her humour in the hunger games!)
