It left me feeling gross. There were no quotation marks which just felt pick me and not cool. The characters were unlikeable, kinda annoying, and at times just awful people. All that happens was sad emotional sex that they pretended wasn’t sad and emotional. And then she talked about be willing to have an abortion for the guy and I finally called it quits. 

The only thing I liked was the narrators accent.

Found it boring and self-indulgent. No quotation marks around dialogue made it even more of a chore to read.
