- Plot- or character-driven? Character
3.5
I'm conflicted....
While I think it was great there are some parts that really don't sit right with me, like REALLY bother me. I think this being categorized as a romance is... misleading?? or maybe just odd??
I knew from the warnings at the beginning that it had abuse in it but this is predominantly a book about abuse and its aftermath, with quite a bizarre "love story" weaved into it(and I put that i quotes because for a lot of the book it just didn't make sense based on their interactions).
I might go back and edit this review in the future if I feel like it but for now I'll just leave it because putting everything into words doesn't seem to be working for me at the moment.
