This book is fantastically bad, but some parts closer to the end did read sort of fine, like they were actually planned in advance unlike the rest of this bullshit, so it's not completely one star
Other than that I can't believe how bad it was even considering my low expectations from the previous two
Also, for fuck's sake, it doesn't need this many complicated words, some of the oh so ✨✨✨cool✨✨✨ and ✨✨✨smart✨✨✨ sentences that were made exclusively for fancy quotes don't even make sense and only make the text absolutely unnecessarily obscure
