If I knew there was a stand-up comedy element of this book, I probably wouldn’t have read it tbh. I hate when a book tells me someone is meant to be funny and I just… don’t laugh once. That being said, I pretty much enjoyed everything else about this book. I get why people label this “women’s fiction” as opposed to it being a romance because, truly, the romance is just not the main priority of this novel. Instead, you’re following Georgina as she battles infidelity (on multiple fronts), job insecurity and the feeling of being behind while in your thirties. I would’ve loved to see more from Georgina and Luca after the grand love confession… I think that’s my biggest criticism.
