Three stars is 100% because of my slumpity slump slump.

It wasn't bad. I enjoyed many things about it—the meta-ness of the world, Rosamund, Leo, and Robin, and while I appreciated the first-drafty nature of it all, I think I ultimately wanted...more? There was so much happening in this book, with the relationship between Caroline and Henry, Caroline and the Mystery of her Job, and then the entire fantasy book being written and Caroline's constant interjections, that it didn't feel like all the things had enough time to be properly developed.

But as a fun, lighthearted and cozy read complete with a very logical, very rational heroine, it was a fun romp.
