the misogyny and sexism experienced by the characters are really bad. i feel so bad and disgusted even if it's fictional. the love story of the main characters are cute tho but also like it's very fast. i also feel like the ending didn't answer the questions that i have throughout the story. but if you want a happy ending 🤷‍♀️ then here you go.

Football players and cheerleader staying closeted because their teammates are Aholes or complicit. They exclude new female QB out of spite, misogyny, homophobia while claiming they are honouring the previous QB who died while driving drunk. It was a bit depressing, but more in the way that their actions were so unreasonable they didn't seem like actual people, so how can you progress in a world with no reason.

the only thing keeping this from being a 2 is that some of the scenes are really heartwarming. but ....
OHMYHEAVENS.
the characters were all so annoying! they were all so selfish and whiney and very self-victimizing. was not a huge fan of when one of the mcs guilttripped a gay man by saying he was misogynist when he was nothing of the sort. the main love interests fought every two seconds and between that and the insta love i was like why tf are they together 😐 idk i think i just want a sapphic book thats sweet. the end was very tumblr "and they all clapped" and there were so many unresolved ends??

why do we have this whole arc about cara and ambers friendship and the explosion about the abortion and cara basically being the reason robbie died and then it all ends with her showing up to homecoming for five minutes and being like "sorry i was violently homophobic lol byee"

it was messy but honestly kind of messy in an entertaining kuwtk / drag race untucked drama way- i just wish the characters werent so insufferable
also all the stereotypes? 😭like i have religious trauma so i can acknowledge the point the author's trying to make but it seemed like she had a vendetta against christians 🤷🏼‍♀️idfk anyways.
