I don't know if I will continue, I might read the Destroy Me novella since it's at the end of my copy from the library and see how I feel about it then.

The plot started out interesting as well but then it got a bit slow and I started having issues with the main characters. The girl talks to about 5 characters in this book and 3/4 guys her age are constantly showing in some way how attractive they find her, how much they want her, despite her expressing that she doesn't want that. It also feels like it's used as a way to make the character seem more desirable. Plus, there's basically an assault theme in which a character is kissing her against her will and suddenly she's like "huh...but maybe i DO like him?" despite hating said character all throughout the book for obvious reasons...and it just felt highly uncomfortable and gross, esp bc it wasn't reevaluated at a later point.
Also I got really annoyed by how many times had to be mentioned that the main girl is so tiny and light and fragile while both of the male main characters were so tall and broad and somehow they carried her everywhere???
The plot gets a bit more interesting towards the end again.
I might have gone into this book with the wrong expectations but I really thought I was gonna like it and was super disappointed, unfortunately.

⚠️Tw for book⚠️: SA, death, violence, gun violence, torture, and dark thoughts.
I really love this book! It was paced well and it kept me hooked the whole time! I ended up buying the next 2 books before I even finished this one because I knew I would want to read them! I like all the characters even the antagonists. They are written well and I honestly loved every second of this book! I would recommend it!

I was promised action, loveable characters and beautiful writing.
Instead I got boring ass scenes, Warner that literally sexually assaults Juliette and horrible choppy writing, especially at the beginning
