- how a book that’s meant to be dismantling stereotypes makes them seem true and even plays into them
- how cheating is glorified and deemed ‘okay’ if it has a good enough reason behind it
- why the main character does everything she does
+0.5 stars because I liked the poems
Graphic: Racism
Minor: Cursing
i don’t get triggered at racial things usually, but this book made me very uncomfortable.wisteriaearl's review against another edition
1.0
- 1/3 of the book is really enjoyable and fun to read.
- the insta-love was something i overlooked because i assumed this was book was just a cheesy sapphic love story
Bad: - theres several cheating subplots from multiple characters that feel so random and out of place.
- the mc acts in such an unbelievable and unlikeable way that is never resolved. she never really redeems herself or atones for her mistakes.
- her casual racism is never addressed and things resolve in such a smooth way that it doesn't make sense.
- the conflict of the story hinges on "never communicating with eachother ever" and its more frustrating than entertaining
Moderate: Racism and Xenophobia
