I’m only 37% through this book, but seriously questioning whether I should finish it. The character named Sydney just keeps making stupid, unrealistic choices. Strong, independent women would not make the choices she made on her terrible blind date. And more follow throughout. I think it’s possible to still write good fiction with admirable women characters. I adore Clea Shearer, but this recommendation is a dud.

I thought it was terrible. Seemed written by an amateur. I stuck with it, thinking maybe it would have a great ending. It didn’t.
