I was drawn by the title, I thought it suggested a bit of a caper, a bit of wit. There’s no such thing. This book is all too serious about following the program. That is, if the new minister who Ruby publicly chastised for corruption does not take away their funding.
This book was disappointing. I expected some wit and joy and there was very little. It was too literally following the program. Thorpe did not seem to know what book she wanted to write, a romance, a book about self-discovery, a book about petty bureaucratic squabbles. There’s also just a bit of a too-ridiculous end. It’s not hateful, perhaps if I had a phobia, I might get inspired to try to treat it from this book, it is hopeful in that way. Otherwise, it’s not really of much merit.
