Can I just say, I was so excited for this book? I thought the premise had so much potential and it seemed like it would be a fun, hysterical read. Unfortunately, this book fell short in many ways.
It had a very strong start and I was so invested in the characters and plot. The $50 thing was hilarious and Court's inner thoughts were effortlessly funny. But then the family drama and all the unnecessary angst came in and ruined the vibes. It went from a comedic feel-good plot to an angsty ride full of family disputes. Not a great change of pace.
The ending left much to be desired as there were many loose ends and the book wrapped up rather abruptly. Overall, I just felt very disappointed because this could have been so much more.
