Frances is the worst. She’s immature and needs to grow up/learn to communicate. I somehow really liked the story but I wasn’t a fan of most of the characters. Nick & Bobbi were okay though.

I give her credit because I do love her writing, but these characters are so unbearable. It physically pained me to keep reading as their lives got shittier. Very little redeeming qualities in any of these characters. Especially Bobbi. Fuck her.
