I don’t know what I expected out of this story when I heard what it was about but this just wasn’t my jam. If you’re into taboo relationships this is probably better for you. It was written decent? It kept me engaged the entire time, while I hated what I was reading, I had to know how it ended. I know they are not blood related but the constant use of family terminology was icky to me and the MC being freshly legal but still in school was just weird. She could have been college age, but I understand it’s part of the plot for her to be underage. I don’t know if this was also meant to be a bully type novel but some of the stuff that happened/ was said to the MC was super messed up.
