This book started out really good! It had great characters and a great storyline. There were a few moments that did not make sense to me as I read though and it was a little longer than maybe was needed? But there really was a lot of things going on this story. And I mean that in a mostly good way. Both characters had their issues. And I enjoyed both of their sides of the story. Although I did totally connect with Vassa's introvert side, there was a few things she did that I didn't. Like saying dogs were bad because they "rolled around in feces". Um, yeah, once in awhile if you let them get out in a yard and they find something, but it rarely happens. So not sure wtf that came from. Then they went on a bunch of errands and went to the grocery store first? That's not realistic, anything cold, especially after you go to a bookstore AFTER the grocery store? And then there was a bit of slut shaming from her, although I think maybe she did kind of take it back a little later. But I don't think someone can say they are modern or an up to date person and say that people who "hook up" are crazy. It was around this point that my enjoyment of the book took a little dip. However I didn't give up, and a little bit further, about two-thirds of the way through, I got reinvested in the story. I do love the line I hear people say that really makes sense to me, "I feel some kind of way." Towards the end I didn't feel she was overreacting at all about a certain situation, especially when one part seemed to come out of nowhere and not really have been introduced at all as a part of the story before. And of course the Young and the Restless fan in me loved the mention of Genoa City.

Overall a good story with some dips in the middle, but if you keep going past those, you'll be glad you read this one!
