 I did it again. I choose a book based on the cover and not the reviews. I  have recently been watching the show “Call Me Kat.” So in my head, this will be as cute and enduring as the show starring Mayim Bialik.  I was wrong!  Going on the journey Fawn Birchill, a struggling small business owner in Philadelphia. The book is written in an Episloraty style, with emails, journals, and text messages to capture the events in Fawn’s life.  I have to be honest, I hated the main character. Fawn was self-absorbed, jealous, has a sense of entitlement,  lived in grandiose fantasies, and was generally mean.  Fawn’s moments were caring and concerned to a few specific people, such as her tenants.  Honestly, Fawn is cringy. I feel so sorry for everyone that has to deal with Fawn. When the author offers a glimpse that Fawn may not be a horrible person, we as the reader  

Would I suggest this book to read or listen to? Not really, I only finished the book because I have to complete books, I start. I only had water while reading this book, because I  read it at work and listened to it when I was driving home.

Also, I hate that the Main Character compares herself to an older Kiera Knightly… It always made me frown when she mentions it to others.

I hope you enjoy this review.
