The book would have been better in my opinion if the main female character wasn’t written as a „not like other girls“ and actually would have tried to build a (platonic) relationship with another female/not male character. 
It would have also better if every female character wasn’t “villainized” and sooo jealous of the main female character for having a relationship with the male main characters.
