Very funny, has a lot of the same charm as the first book. Charmain is an unlikeable person, but written well enough that you still root for her. Just because she’s a bad person doesn’t mean she’s a bad character!
My biggest issue with this is just that the end happens? Like it wraps up all of the plot points, but like, incredibly abruptly. Final 5 pages everything’s good! The conclusion just feels rushed; it’s ended, better times have come, but you just don’t feel satisfied with it. More of a “I guess?” Feeling. Still liked the book though
