The writing was too bad for me to get into this book and the plot just never really got going for me. Nice concept but it’s not a book I would recommend.

Wasn’t for me, I loved the concept. But some of the writing felt very choppy. I might take another crack at it.

Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this eARC!

...not for me. It wasn't horrible but I found it to be weird and choppy and the characters were meh. I just really didn't like the execution and maybe a bit more editing could have helped. Overall, it just wasn't that easy to get into.

I just couldn't get into this book. I loved the concept of the book, but the execution just wasn't there. The main character, Daisy, quits her job cleaning hotel rooms to become a happiness expert. She attends a play where she meets the actor, Vince, and he asks for her help. He needs a happiness expert to help him, and she agrees. Through this connection, things start to move forward in Daisy's career. Daisy also spends time with her local barista, Joe, and she has to decide if there is something beyond friendship between the two of them.

I felt like the writing was very clipped and choppy. The dialogue was hard to follow, and I wasn't invested in the characters or their relationships. I loved the dog in the book, Doodle. I could have read a whole book about him!

Thanks to NetGalley and Embla books for a copy of this ARC.

I was really excited to read this book because of the dog on the cover. Unfortunately I don't think this was the romance book for me. I thought the main character had more chemistry than Vince than I did Joe so the romance just didn't do it for me in this book. I did really like the dog but would've liked the dog to play a more important role.
