This one has an interesting premise & I liked the concept. Not sure if it’s really a romance & I felt it sorta lacked actual romance...maybe its because of how many characters there are. I think it would have been better described as fiction. I really enjoyed the audio, it was an easy quick listen & I appreciated the accents of the characters which was a nice touch. I usually listen at a 1.75 speed-2, and think that it would
best be listened to at a slower speed to fully enjoy the narrators. I did also enjoy that it was written in form of letters which was nice way to go about a book like this. Overall it was a lovely quick listen audio book.

I wanted to like this book, I really did, but about half way in, i was struggling to get through the other half.

Characters ended up being too many by the end and it was getting increasingly difficult to remember who is who and where they are from.
Anne-Lise was not a good character. Very aggressive and obsessive. After being told to stop pursuing her want regarding the manuscript (by the author, of all people) she just basically continues, not really caring about other people.
She was very one dimensional and it was impossible to make a connection with her.

This book is an epistolary novel and i usually love those, but this one really didn't do anything for me.
