I was kinda disturbed by Misha for parts of the book with the weird creepy stuff he was doing. Because of this the relationship between the main characters made me uncomfortable sometimes. Other than that it was really good.

Hottest sex scenes I’ve read in a published book, but I don’t like reading about unhealthy relationship dynamics that aren’t portrayed as such or fixed by the end, so their relationship rubbed me the wrong way, especially with the epilogue. Still a fun read though.

Some things are so bad they're good... This is just straight up awful. 
I'm surprised this was even published and it's getting this level of attention, it's straight up a bad fanfiction (and, for some perspective, most fan fictions I've read are way better). 

It really tried to make a redemption arc for a bully that supported other violent bullies... Because she just was ✨ not like the other girls ✨ and had a deep dark bad boy love interest.
It's awful, the whole Manny forgiving her after her "boyfriend" Ripped his earlobe? I can't believe people don't see how wrong this book is... 
Using the abuse of others to make a character arc? Ffs

I could write a 5 page essay about all the shameful tropes this book used, pretty much no character is redeemable, so much homophobia and misogyny it's disgusting. 

Save your neurons and skip this one, even wattpad has better and less abusive stories (and definitely better smut)
