Extremely entertaining and suspenseful!! I loved Lauren who is the main character that is sharp and funny. This book flips the script on the idea of meeting “the one.” There is no resolution on the attic’s magic which might be frustrating for some readers.

I enjoyed this book bc it was fiction, so I wasn't reading into the scenarios as much as the others. There were times I was really scared for her that the men would not go back in the attic. People need to learn to be entertained and not disect everything to be plausible or make sense. Again its FICTION.

2.25 stars. I really really wanted to like this book. Really cool concept and poor execution.
Gramazio could have done a better job in easing the readers into the story- was a little jarring. I found the revolving door of husbands/situations just exhausting. It was unnecessary and tiring. The only redeeming character was Bohai--- and this was the only reason for the 2stars.

I was not a fan is this book. I felt like the story went on and on way too long and with too many new husbands coming out of the attic. The final wrap up was the ending and how it just ended abruptly, I guess I didn’t get the full meaning of this story.

I really enjoy this book. The premise and writing style was fun. Could see it being a fun show. Back part was a little janky but I still like that I felt the resolution fell in line with the journey (hopefully thats not spoilery). Great debut!
