You can tell that these are college kids, and the man dude doesn't really feel like he's 24. He's a fuckboy, she's a cute redheaded waitress he's got a crush on. She happens to be his best friend's "little sister" that's been out of contact for 3 years. For me, it just felt like the author was putting in so many different things just for the sake of having a "complicated" character. It felt entirely unnecessary.
I don't know if I can continue the series. I didn't feel connected to any of these characters. I told myself more than once to just stop reading it, but alas, I didn't. One part of this book made me cry. It was right near the end, but the feelings hit a little too close to home with what I've experienced in my own life. So, it was me, not the book that made me cry.

The real reason for the low rating is all of the unnecessary trauma for the FMC. In my opinion, it was truly excessive and not needed to progress the plot (i.e. the deadbeat mom returning).
