** spoiler alert ** DNF at 10%

I am not the right demographic for this book.

This ROM COM may be a better match for those in their twenties? 🤷🏻‍♀️(There are positive reviews...)

I found the writing to be VULGAR and the HUMOR to be very over the top.

SPOILERS:

“The most memorable bloke was Period Pete, a friend of a friend, who liked performing oral sex on menstruating women, and who the three (of us) collectively decided must have an undiagnosed iron deficiency.”

Need I say more?

NZLisaM I read the spoiler review because I was never intending to read this. Eek, sounds too weird! Think you made the right decision, Jayme.


Jayme 🤣I have no doubt in my mind that DNF was the right decision, Lisa!!
