I had such high hopes for this book, and I remained pretty engaged throughout the beginning, but I have little time for stories where female protagonists put up with dickish male characters who act entitled to her time and affections just because they’ve liked her since their first meeting. Then he throws a goddamn hissy fit about it *rolls eyes* fucking please. Roger also makes her feel guilty for needing empirical evidence before she believes in fantasy worlds. It was one of the many traits I liked about Daisy: her need for evidence/proof despite the fact she works in a “magic” shop. Her dreams were to move to London to be a writer, but her father’s selfish need for her to take over the shop so he can search for Utopia overrides his daughter’s life wishes. She has zero interest in doing this, but he doesn’t give a shit, and yeah, I feel bad that he’s sick, but she doesn’t want that life.
