None of these characters are likeable. In some ways, this is good for the book, but other times I struggled to care enough to keep reading. Sometimes, the characters' emails got a little too poetic and lost me, but the Epistolary nature of this book was a fun change of pace. Overall, this is just a book where everyone is too far up their own ass to see what lives others live. This causes conflict necessary for the (minimal) plot, but also makes the characters feel kind of flat - in my opinion. I would have liked just a little more redemption.
