This was just okay. The story was a little confusing and all over the place. Nothing was really clear for me, I had a hard time making images in my head, which rarely happens to me.

 The two main characters were so awkward it’s was uncomfortable and made it cigars to read. If they had ever just talked everything would have cleared up. I’m also just not really a fan of friends to lovers.

Things just kind of happened without and rhyme or reason it felt. By the end it the whole story just kind of felt unnatural and off.

This book was a charming, fun, comforting ride. It was sweet when needed, badass when needed, and just the right feel for fall. If you want a book that reminds you to believe in yourself and find magic in life, this is definitely it. 

There is a slight romance in this and it’s sweet and spicy. The banter is great. But this book is more about falling in love with yourself. 

I highly recommend this book. It is such a good time.

I like the premise of this book and the story was good, but it could have been condensed to make more actually happen. This was truly just the start of the story and it barely stands as its own book. Most of it is just her wandering a house. I think the next book will be super good though. Would have rather have them edited down into one longer book.
