i liked this book a lot, however the ending was quite odd and rushed. also when

cady started getting migraines

it just took a long portion of the book, and wasn’t that interesting.

This book definitely caught me by surprise, it got two tears out of me but it was no where near what TikTok claimed it was so if that’s where you’ve come from the walk into this prepared to be disappointed overall though it was a good book, I feel kinda bad now for not liking Gat.

This book was not my favorite. The plot twist was definitely not expected, but I was expecting something bigger. Cadence, the main character, is really annoying. She is just obsessed over Gat and is really seaking for sympathy a lot of the time. The character development was also nonexistent. The rest of the characters didn’t make me feel attached into the book. The writing style was also very different from what Im used to, and I did like the writing style in the middle to the end, but in the beginning it was super confusing. This book is pretty faced paced and it is short, so if you want to just read to get it off of your tbr, then I guess you could read it.
