I was a bit hesitant going into this, but it turned out to be a really lovely story.

What surprised me the most was that I didn't dislike Prudence at all. Yes, she is very ambitious and driven, she is a perfectionist who doesn't believe things can be done properly unless she does them, and she can be difficult. But she also cares about things and people around her and she wants to use her skills for something good. She's an optimist and she doesn't let anything get her down. If something doesn't work out, she'll find a different way. I liked that about her.

The concept of instant karma was interesting, though it didn't play such a huge role as I expected. For the most part, the story was about something entirely different. I won't go into any details since it's not mentioned in the blurb, I'll only say that I found it very educational and it gave a very positive tone to the story. That and all the lovely supporting characters.

MarianR I remember that at first Prudence was not to my liking, but the book is long enough for you to see her other attitudes and the growth that she has🤭 i'm glad you liked it!

Thanks, Marian! 💕 I've seen a lot of negative reviews for this book, and especially for Prudence, so I was well prepared when I started it. 😅 I agree with you, there's more to her character and she does change as the story progresses.

Shile (Hazard's Version) on-hiatus Prudence sounds like a keeper. I am happy you enjoyed this one. Amazing review Snjez. xoxo


Meags Great review, Snjez. I really enjoyed this too. Nicely fleshed out characters for a YA contemporary. 😊

I know you did! It was your review and comments that gave me a push to give it a try, after seeing a lot of negative reactions to Prudence. And you were right about her. 🙂 I also agree with what you said about the characters. I liked so many of them, especially Jude and Ari.
Thanks, Meags! 🧡
