The whole thing just feels very...in your face with the messaging? It's possible this is because of the audiobook narration, so I might try it in text. Very cheesy (which I don't usually mind) and some of the tropes are a little bit too...meh. Like, sorry, but why is the straight girl's gay best friend just hitting on every hot man within his peripheral? Why is the knight's last name MacKnight? And while I'd usually love subverting gender expectations by making the woman a knight, the whole "NO, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE A MAN" and that whole discussion felt like....idk forced girl power? lmao

Probably could've finished it, but I found myself rolling my eyes so many times that I'm like, why bother??
