”We live in a world where exceptional women have to sit around waiting for mediocre men.”

I am fully convinced that Taylor Jenkins Reid is a mastermind. I believed that before I read this but this book just helped cement that for me.

I enjoy the way that TJR has the ability to write stories in non-traditional ways. Daisy Jones & the Six is the perfect example of this by how it is told in an interview format. Every work that TJR does is original and timeless.

Carrie was such a strong, empowering character and I loved reading about her. She quickly became a character that I believe I will think about for a long time. What I love the most about the main characters that feature in TJR's books is that they are unapologetically imperfect. They're human.

Also, Bowen was such a highlight for me. I love him so much.

I loved coming along on Carrie's journey to realise that it's okay to not be perfect. This felt like a love letter. I will most definitely be rereading this in the future.
