Emily Proudman is down and out until she is offered a mysterious position out of the blue. Think maybe it comes with a catch? You betchya.
I have no clue what it is about this book, but it just doesn't do it for me. Sometimes I think it is just the wrong time for a person to read a book. I have so many books I have been dying to read right now and I just felt like this book was involved in a diabolical plot to keep me from them. It just moved so. dang. slow! I can't take it! And I didn't feel any kind of atmosphere of thriller in this book. It's too... sunny? I don't know. But it just didn't work for me. It had me skimming a lot... I also felt vaguely like the whole story of being down and out and then receiving a mysterious opportunity is something I've read a lot lately...
Then, I went into this book expecting something totally different than what it is. Like I misread the synopsis or a review or something? And honestly, I feel like this whole review boils down to: It's not you, it's me.
2.5 rounded to 3 stars
