Every chapter title is an alliterative tabloid headline, which was annoying at first but soon reminded me of the narration in Gossip Girl. I heard it in Kristen Bell's voice despite listening to the audiobook.

Ignore the cover picture - Sophie is described as plump throughout, which is a wonderful change of pace. Personality-wise she's similar to Belle: likes books and wants to escape the status quo. King is the typical damaged but noble hearted type. Other than a “surprise kiss” there are no consent issues. There are a lot of annoying communication issues spurring the conflicts of the story along but I guess we can't get everything.
