3.0

A lot of things happenned at the  same time in this book, you had so much backstory in all the characters, all of them have some sort of traumatic past that is explored on the book and it's very overwhelming. Also, it's absurd that the main character is this rude to people who are providing him a service. Made me not like him so much, and the constant fights by the end made me believe that when they actually get together it's to small to make up for all the bad thing that happened. Also the representation here is null, just white people having white people problems. My biggest problem with the book was the way the Scottish accent was written, it really got on the way of the reading to have to "translate" in my brain what those words were in regular English. But is a light well-written read that you can do in a day and be done with it.

I just couldn’t get into this book, it’s just not for me. I also read more reviews and this book is not something I feel comfortable reading.
