I wish I could give this book 10 stars. My best read this year by far! The story is simply so real. The emotions expressed are raw and nearly every page moved me. Please look up trigger warnings though!!

After finishing this book I feel this urge to talk about it with someone who read it and show them all of my favorite quotes or to convert someone into reading this. I think this feeling alone shows that the book was GOOD. This story was satisfying in the weird way and I will need to think about this some more. 4.75 ⭐️( it’s not full 5 stars for me because I felt like story was dragging just a bit in the middle )

The first few chapters of this book were so engaging but I found myself growing more and more disinterested as the chapters progressed. The characters seemed pretentious and wholly self-centred and I found myself having to struggle through some of the chapters. The random POVs scattered throughout the book were biazarre and unecessary. Despite all of that I somehow ended up really enjoying Cleo's story, I wish it had centred on her and no one else she's the only reason my star rating is passable.
