In the case of this book, the destination is also incredibly satisfying. What I'm saying is I really liked the ending. This story is based on vengeance, and vengeance comes up constantly as it's the main focus for one of the MCs (at least one!). That comes with all the drama required of sacrifices made to pursue vengeance and questioning what truly matters in life. In this case, I enjoyed the way each character came to their final decisions, and the "results" of it all in terms of the show. Of course, the journey was also wonderful! I loved meeting each contestant and hearing about how they connected to the main in question. Seeing them connect with each other was way more satisfying, though. The premise of a dude's house full of ex-girlfriends is obviously going to spark some drama, and that was certainly here, but there was an impressive amount of measuredness and level-headed decisions as well. It prevented it from falling into areas that were too angry or vindictive to be able to enjoy it or root for anyone. By the end, I'm pretty sure I loved all of them (barring that douche). The best word I can use for this book is satisfying. And I mean that in a way that evokes smug smiles, and perfectly silky chocolate cake, and the fading notes of your favorite song. It's just... everything is done right. It feels like exactly the story it needed to be, and it was genuinely just so fun to read. Thank you to NetGalley for a free advanced copy. This is my honest review. (  ) Jenniferforjoy | Jan 29, 2024 | I thought this was a super fun read and I thought that book had such a fun take on a reality dating show. I iked both characters but felt their vocies were too simialr at points. I thought this was great take on the hate to more troupe and loved how that felt out. It was a quick read and loved all the charaters. i will def read more by this author in the future.

It was very easy to read and quite funny at times. Overall it was just plain satisfying.
It was exactly what it set out to be.
Maya wasn't a perfect main character but she showed some real character development which then was very cathartic cause at times it felt like she was just stuck. In her life and her thinking but that's something a lot of people can probably relate to.
Skye on the other hand also has her faults, unable to let anyone in and then quick to blame others for smaller faults because she has a hard time trusting.
I was quite glad there weren't more girls involved in the reality tv show. This way they all got their own mostly distinct characteristics and arcs throughout the story. And it was simple enough to keep up with who was who.
I was a bit worried at first about their ages because I often have a hard time believing things 18 year olds in books often have already achieved. This wasn't an issue at all though. The characters didn't feel immature or like it was unbelievable for Jordy to have dated this many people at that age. And besides the fact that college is a talkign point in the beginning and the end, the characters could just as well be a tad older and it wouldn't change the plot itself.
So overall well developed characters and a plot that was simple yet charming. (
