Best for people who love cozy reads, games, and series
So I tried to stay open minded with this book as long as possible. However, the missing red thread and the shallow explanation kept me wondering up until the point where it finally lost me. I stopped reading at page 76 - our main protagonist explains to one of her costumers that she should „just smile“. She says the brain won‘t understand that it‘s fake and therefore understand this as happiness. This would then attract people with positive energy. Maybe I am being too sensitive here, but I this feels like a slap in the face. It feels like this thing people would say to you when you are down and really need help but they‘d say „just smile more often“. No, just no.
