My experience with this book can be summarized as "laughing in disbelief". My BS-meter broke now, I have to repair it. Nothing more to add. Others have done the work of refuting this for me.

This person gives cats too much credit. "There is little chance of your cat poisoning itself" Dude, cats will eat plastic if left unattended.

It was boring, repetitive and annoying. It reads fast but that's about it, but it's just another "best seller esque romance" from an author that stuck to a formula her whole career and while to some people that's good enough, it's not really for me.

It was probably one of the stupidest books I've ever read. Now I don't wanna read anymore. I hope it didn't put me in a slump or I'll resent it even more.
