this would’ve been a 4⭐️ if it weren’t for the constant caricaturization of the other girls in the group home. the constant use of fatphobia and colorism to describe tara made me uncomfortable in particular. also the the twist wasn’t as shocking as i thought it would be

The way I loved every second of this book. No spoilers but I actually really loved the ending. Seems to be a heated topic in the reviews but it really worked for me. This is the 3rd book I’ve read by TDJ and she is officially a read without question author of mine. Do be mindful of trigger warnings though.
