I have heard such good things about Kayley Loring that I was super excited to listen to this book. Add in the premise, and it felt like a guaranteed good read. Unfortunately, I was highly disappointed. The comedy seemed forced and lacking. I'm not a fan of bathroom humour anyway but the odd joke here or there I can handle, this book relied so heavily on it that I just couldn't enjoy the story. I laugh maybe three times and that was near the end. It just wasn't funny to me. The characters didn't come across as very likeable, which also added to the difficulties while listening.

I have been told her other books hit the mark, so I may try again. This one definitely wasn't a good fit for me.

That being said, the narrators were brilliant. I had issue with one of them and their accent work but that's a standard issue I have with him. Emma Wilder and Teddy Hamilton were fantastic and the support voice actors enhanced the audio experience.
