"MC was a bit annoying at times but I think the male lead balanced her out. I like that this isn’t your typical romance for the most part. This book discusses a really important theme that happens with a lot of first-gen daughters where they feel like they can’t truly be free of their parents expectations unless there’s some sort of condition attached to it. I feel like that was very realistically portrayed. Overall, a quick and easy read with funny moments in between."
