Anita de Monte Laughs Last by Xochitl Gonzalez
4.0

The amount of times I wanted to DNF this book was insane. 

I found Anita's rants via audio nearly insufferable. I couldn't figure out where the story was going/what the entire point of the book was. I was feeling very impatient with Raquel, being a dumb new adult navigating the world for the first time by herself. I understood that NA characters are usually stupid and annoying but it was just so OBVIOUS that Nick was not the right person for her, and I just thought she was a great catch, and deserved better. 

Once the story hit about 63% the pieces finally clicked together. I could see where the plot was taking me and I was HERE FOR IT. I am so glad I stuck with this book, although I do wish that it would have hooked me a bit sooner than over the halfway mark. 

I LOVED the twist, where Anita, Jack, and Raquel took me. This book is going places and will be talked about a lot!!

Took off one star....because of the very very slow start...and slow middle....but WOWOWOWOWIE what an ending!!!!!
