Mai Tai'd Up

The book is so funny and light, but I wondered if the characters' vulnerabilities were fully explored or took a backseat to the jokes.

The beach vibe was so vivid and fun — I'm curious if the author has a personal connection to this kind of getaway or if it was purely fictional.

The story seemed to hit a bit of a lull before picking up again. Do you think that was intentional to build tension or just a natural part of the story arc?
