3.5 stars. Quinn really needed to pull his head out of his ass a lot sooner.
Let me just tell you in short: I love this book. It made me dream away and forget about real life for a while. Minnie starts off as a shy and insecure girl and grows into a beautiful and confident woman. The character growth in this book is amazing.
However I think that some parts in this book were unbelievable. Minnie and Quinn crossing ways somehow nearly every new year's day seems quite unbelievable. But however, I really did love this book and could dream away with it!
(It also got me out of my reading slump, so thank you Sophie Cousens!)
This was one of my November 2020 Book of the Month selections, but I also purchased the audio version and listened while simultaneously reading from the hardcover. A love story was almost non-existent and we suffered the whole book through a very tortuous slow burn, which can usually be entertaining, but it somehow missed the point of satisfaction in the end. The female friendships were nice, humorous, and enjoyable to read. I must be honest, this book was not bad, but it wasn't as good as I thought it would be when I chose it.
