I agree, def found the first part more interesting.

Spoilers

Fun fact. The male character the female protagonist shares the Airbnb with, was intentionally written to set off every red flag from the non fiction book “The Gift of Fear”. The book is about how to spot warning signs of violent abusive men.

Thought this was the most interesting part. The main characters seesaw between trust and distrust towards this Airbnb roommate/stranger.
