A bit of a slow start, but it picks up about half way through. A little bit repetitive but it was intriguing and that kept me going. I found the characters all a bit unlikable and think that the author did a really great job writing frustrating characters.

The scream I let out at the end!! The book starts off a little slow then it takes off. FMC was a tad annoying at times but I understood why. I’m glad that things happened to certain people. 🥴 You know who at the end is *chef’s kiss* Don’t judge me lmao. A true act of love ! 💀
