The characters were extremely easy to understand especially with their backgrounds. The book was very fast paced, but not enough to confuse you. There was simply a lot going on in every page.
Nora was a perfect character in the sense that she’s a teen who acts like one. And all of her “past girls” make perfect sense. The way Nora acts makes sense. She does all these things because of everything that she’s gone through and I love that.
The relationships in here are beautifully written. Nora and lee are wonderful together. The perfect sibling bond, I love how she presents them together. Nora and Wes are perfect. The love they have for each other is wonderful. It’s not romantic but as a reader you can tell how important they are for each other.
This book is a perfect light read for anyone looking for a quick, dark book. It’s simple but playful yet talks about some tough topics. I would gladly read this again. It’s such a page turner!! I could barely put it down.

Very fast paced and intriguing
Alternates between past and present
Bisexual main character
Nora and her friends have gone through a lot of trauma with abusive family members and/or partners, so the book is heavy on the aspects of trauma and survival.
Nora, Wes and Iris are all intriguing characters! I think it would be cool if Iris and Wes had their own books. I liked Nora and Iris’s relationship.
Iris has endometriosis. It was cool to see that represented in the book.

i’m a big fan of morally ambiguous main characters so i thoroughly enjoyed this book. i felt like the characters’ reactions to their trauma was very realistic given their need to just continue living despite
