This book was really good but in a way that made me wish I hadn’t read it. Georgia is a queer teenager discovering for the first time how to wield her sexuality to get what she wants from men. The reader gets to look on in abject horror as Georgia walks right into the gaping mouth of a trap set just for her before she realizes the kind of power she has over men isn’t empowering at all. Massive trigger warnings, especially for sexual assault.

Predictable and obvious plot. Dumb as bricks main character. So much cp. I feel nasty after reading this. If there was supposed to be critique and commentary it was lost on me, seemed more like a showcase
Marketing this book as an lgbtq+ romance is really sick too
