Whenever we got a tiny glimpse of the romance it was very sweet but overall it was really repetitive and I double checked to make sure it wasn’t YA bc it felt like it was. I wish the romance and her career stuff was more fleshed out because it felt like she kept complaining about the same things without giving us much info. I guess that’s an accurate portrayal of anxiety spirals but I was hoping for a little more story.

I started playing bingo in my head each chapter to see if she would mention 

1. Grace’s hair 
2. Sea salt & herbs
3. Rosebud cheeks
4. What it means to be a “Porter”
5. “lonely creatures” 

And she pretty much mentioned all of them every chapter.
