I wish I could have enjoyed this book. Both the FMC and the MMC are both irredeemable assholes and with only 40 something pages and making it to 37% I came to the conclusion that there was no believable redemption arc in my future.
Some of my main issues I had with the story was the fat shaming of one of the side characters. Then the FMC is so judgmental of her friends for having standards, but she herself is in love with her billionaire boss. Which it’s not very clear why she would be in love with him, he seems to treat and speak about other women like they’re trash. Yet belly-aches that women only want him for is money and status; and the FMC just goes along with it and agrees that all the other women are horrible. It was very pick-me, not like other girls vibes and I just couldn’t do it. The icing on the cake was that the writing was pretty bad, especially the dialogue, it felt very stilted.
