Kyla Zhao crafted a quick-paced story with many details sprinkled throughout that we could revisit again later in the story. Even with the CEO and his sleaze ball actions, the book overall is an easy read.

Mostly fun and cute but not at all subtle in its messaging. There are so many issues presented but not handled with nuance or complexity. I was going to say it reads like YA but that's kind of a diss on YA.

This book landed on my kindle at the best time. I accepted a massive job promotion and change after 17 years. Though I'm almost 20 years older than these characters, my empathy was totally there. And of course the casual ignoring of Zoe, especially by the male coworkers ran so true from my own work experiences over the decades.
Zoe really resonated - leaving her found family. massive changes and the strong desire to succeed in a completely different field. I really enjoyed this one!
