I gave this book an honest shot. I was ready to have fun. I had to stop reading because: 

1. For a book with so much drama, it’s INCREDIBLY boring. Literally the same thing over and over again. Some reviewers call this a rollercoaster but it’s just a coin flipping over and over. 

2. I truly can’t emphasize this enough—every scenario is so cringey. Like, pre-teen, fanfic, immature fantasy. 

3. This is just my own bias talking, but I don’t find do-nothing rich people interesting in the slightest. I get that in the romance genre the economic fantasy is part of the game, but in this case it does nothing for me.

4. The excessive clothing descriptions killed me. I typically like an outfit description to add costume design to the movie playing in my head when I’m reading, but this was on another level. I understand that it’s her little quirk/skill, but really. 

I would rather look at her paintings. I just completely lost interest in these short stories. The longer ones that I read were entertaining though. 

I loved this book so much. Touches on the queer experience and how outside perception can effect how you feel about yourself because of course everyone has to have an opinion. And it's hot??? Loved it. Also, Annie is a kink-shaming, bi-phobic little brat that needs to cut the cord for real.
