At first, this book was overtly ridiculous, but I enjoyed myself, even if it wasn't written all that well. Towards the end, even I, who usually is the person who says "This is exactly how I want my slow burns to go" when everyone else is already saying "please get a move on" and "can they finally talk to each other", found that this was overtly drawn out. The last about thirty pages seemed to be a waste as they seemed to have the exact same conversation with the same relationship development multiple times. This usually would be exactly what I like, and the first half would have gotten this a nice 3-star-rating, because even through the weak writing, the character interactions and dynamics were funny enough, but the end just dragged so much and the writing just made it worse. Really, if the last 30 pages had not been the way they were, my whole review would have been that very first sentence, but the last pages just made me so fed up. And seeing that the writing was bad enough that only my enjoyment despite it had kept me at thinking I'd give it 3 stars, I cannot in good conscience give it more than these 2.
