3.5 stars.
Not a bad read but not a fantastic read. There’s a lot of emphasis on family and they really are up in each other’s business, constantly. The romance between Monroe and Holden is slow burnish mainly due to the fact that Holden does have a boyfriend for the first half of the book. There’s no cheating but it does keep them as just friends for a while.
I didn’t mind this book but was expecting to click with it more than I did.
