Well…

It’s a flimsy thing, and I’m struggling to pin down what precisely isn’t work. Big picture? The writing feels off. The pacing is choppy. And smut is bland bland bland"

40.0% "This book takes place in Sydney, Australia, and has a cast of Americans, Canadians, and Aussies.

As a Canadian who’s lived in Sydney, I can tell you that much of this books reads like someone wanting to prove how well they know each culture.

Here’s the problem: these moments don’t feel natural. They’re clunky. And often, they don’t actually move the story forward"

53.0% "How disappointing that this is supposed to be spicy with BDSM and istg every scene is rushed and had next to no descriptors.

If I could demand this author go back to smut writing school, I would"
