Funny You Should Ask Me why I finished this.

Here’s the thing, I had decided to DNF but then needed a bit of a distraction. 

What do I usually read when I need a distraction? Fan fiction. 

What is this? Basically fan fiction of GQ article with zero acknowledgment of that said article.

Was great for a distraction but the romance had zero spark, the writing and dialogue was cringe, and there was basically no reasoning as to why the two people actually loved each other. 

I was considering giving this two stars, but the ending left me wanting A LOT more. Actually this whole book left me wanting a lot more. 

For better writing and romance, see AO3.
