3.5

If you ignore the absolutely unhinged political dynamics and assumption, it's not a bad romance! The scene transitions can get confusing and are often pretty rough, especially as an audiobook. The characters are super cool and super interesting, but oh wow the sociopolitical world this book lives in is almost painfully naive.
