I was over 1/3 of the way in and still had no feelings about the characters or felt any investment in their story. I see that this book was compared to Sally Rooney's Normal People, which was another book I didn't really care for - so it's obviously just me and my personal reading preferences.

Felt disappointed by the ending, as this was a book I was looking forward to reading. I kind of wanted it to get a lot darker and twisted by the end, but felt like the ending was lacking.

I wanted more supper club and less toxic relationships. Beautiful prose, but a little drawn out. Justice for Adnan.
