The story itself was engaging about a third of the way through. The first third was just excruciating watching our loved characters just be miserable.
The relationship conflicts were confusing and unnecessary, easily solved if given one rational conversation. These aren’t teens, so why are they acting so broody and immature? We expect better from them.
The ending felt more like an attention grabber than a plot twist. It just made me disengage from the story for how left field it was.
And lastly, the publisher really messed up on the delivery of this book. Not only did it have a slew of misprints, but there were dozens of typos and the grammar in some places was horrible. Not to mention the cheesy lines and nonsense derailments. They rushed this big time and the quality tanked because of it.
