Similar to Yellowface, I very much enjoyed this one without really liking a single character. Everyone is a bit too much of whatever they are but it works. The amplified emotion from the POVs you read make everything a little extra heightened and it works. The exaggeration to the point of killing.
Loved the twist about halfway through the book. Made it much more interesting to see the full story come together.

This is the kind of book that's so good, you're gonna be on a reading slump after &will forever chase that high.
Listening/reading to the audio version of this book was immaculate. It for sure elevated the reading experience so much it’s on an entirely different level. The two narrators did so well, I didn’t want to press pause ever. They were excellent in conveying the dialogues and everything else as well, it grants a fully immersive experience, it’s like I’m there with “the both of them”. Though for the “angry feminists” with actual anger issues, be careful, as you might get carried away (because I for sure did).
For the review of the actual book itself,
That was a long one, but long story short, this is an actual (and not the oversexualized version) of a badass woman. 10/10 would read again and recommend the book to everyone asking why I chose the bear over the men.
