The Last First Date by Hayley Quinn
Did not finish book. Stopped at 13%.

The writing is not for me. Hard to explain, but reads too much a self-help generalised dating book trying to be fiction. Characters are so superficial with nothing interesting to say. I was hoping when they met to be able to get past the writing but there’s just no spark and too much like when friends give you dating notes. Just boring and the only cool person seem to be Nanny G.
