Cute for a quick romance, but full of cliches. The FL acted like getting cheated on was a crime and I didn’t really understand why she was acted like it reflected on her so strongly. Overall I didn’t love her character, but I didn’t hate her either. Also the book at so many pop culture references and I personally hate that.

The “she’s my friend’s sister” trope felt like a false dilemma. FL’s brother and ML had been friends for like a year and they’re all around the age of 30. I don’t think there was real conflict there, ever.

Minus points for the internalized misogyny that our FL isn’t like most girly girlz and other females are cute “if you’re into heavy makeup” and are always catty.
