such a roller coaster!! impressive writing & I really enjoyed listening to it. It does a good job of exploring second chances and learning how to let people in.
Things escalated so much as it got to the end and I think it could've benefited from 100 more pages and some additional time for character growth.
I wanted the friendships to feel more solid than what we actually got. Tig was my favorite character and I felt annoyed by how they were just constantly put in the position of teaching Sneha, while Sneha made little digs made about Tig being Black, fat, and non-binary that just never really got corrected. I know this is a book about messy, imperfect people but there are times in the book when Sneha gives her perspective from the future and admits she was wrong, but never about Tig.
& I wanted to understand Marina's appeal but it never really clicked.
