amazing first half but became repetitive towards the end and lost most of its initial magic

didnt like it from the beginning as it was quite triggering for me personally.. i kept reading until half way through and couldnt pick it up again. Make sure to read the warning list as this was a horrible experience for me. Terrible relationship.
