It’s OK

This books is very much a Hallmark movie. Which is fine, you know what you’re going to get.
The virtual voice was off putting. Besides the weird inflections (or lack there of) and odd pronunciations, it just didn’t feel like it was done by a person.
Overall the book it cute, the “conflict” is minimal.
