(It’s infuriating that Brianna
I would’ve loved for
Not the book for you if you want a strong plot, but definitely for you if you care about characters that are shown to be their best and worst selves and everything in between.

I thought this book was pretty interesting. All of the characters are highly dysfunctional, but still relatable. I personally felt frustrated with them on many occasions, but ultimately couldn’t help but root for them.
I did find the pacing a little bit slow. At times the story did drag a bit or get a little redundant, but it was a minor thing.
All in all, if you really like deep explorations of characters and their motivations, this is for you!
