1.0
All of the characters talk about taking control but just get pushed around by the narrative. Most of them hardly do anything at all.
The writing around underage girls is gross, especially a plot contrivance which allows a major character (who is a teacher!!) to have guilt-free sex with a teenage girl. All of the female characters are written very poorly and described by their breasts even when they are dead.
The romance that is basically the whole point of the book is ridiculous.
