Would have liked more world building and themes surrounding beauty
I did not like the Shay Tally fighting over David . I did not like it.
I'm interested to see how it develops.
Minor: Ableism

The love triangle still feels a bit forced; I’d love for them to take it in a queer or poly direction in the new series adaption.
I got heavy “gal pals” energy between Tally and Shay in this reading; which isn’t something I remember noticing or feeling when I read this years ago.
This is still one of my favorite books and I’m very much looking forward to continuing to share the series with my partner.
