this book was honestly disgusting, i couldnt even push through at all. But it has a better writing than most famous books out there, but still not saying its good.

Nicht der beste Schreibstil oder die kreativste Geschichte, aber für mich zu dem Zeitpunkt passend und mit einigen unerwarteten Twists - aber auch voller Klischees. Dennoch schön zum Träumen!

Ok. I have never written a review before so I'm sorry if it's hard to understand. BUT. THIS. GODDAMN. BOOK. Mentally scarred me.
The book (and the series) is a literal Wattpad mafia mets the rich bad boy fanfiction and (as someone who used to eat that shit every day) it makes me sick to the core to know that *this* is considered ok to be published. Honestly? It would've been a *great* idea if it kept the "plot", but turned the message from "this is totally ok and not toxic" to "this behaviour is not ok, but everybody can change. Therapy and other professionals are there for you. And if they don't change, leave them. Also, *CONSENT*??? HELLO??? YOU THERE?" 
To think that this book went through so many hands before it was published and IT STILL WENT TROUGHT. If someone, anyone, girl, boy, non binary, teen, child, adult or elder reads this review, please know that this kind of behaviour is toxic, not ok and dangerous.

Don't read. Not worth it.

nikakulic's review

The main character has internalized misogyny and constantly slut shames other girls. The main love interest is a brat and mean for no apparent reason. The love interest's brother harasses the mc and the love interest laughs it off. This book was terrible but I can proudly admit that I enjoyed it because I love trashy romance book and this one is as trashy as they come. The love story was lacking but it was a fun read and it got me out of a reading slump and for that I am thankful. Have fun reading!<3
