Oh wow, I just could NOT with this book. I think it's meant to be fun and whimsical, but the humor just didn't work for me. Miranda Mathley is definitely a Manic Pixie Dream Heiress and her "being impulsive just for the sake of ruffling feathers" way of doing things was grating rather than refreshing.

I only made it about 1/3 of the way through the book and we've already contrived a fake engagement, curl tossing, and pulling of acquaintances into an elaborate rescue of a complete stranger. It was a lot and I don't think I need more.
