i hate self depricating MCs so starting this book was definitely hard for me. i get it if she just wants to focus on college or whatever, but after reading the sentence “no sense in torturing myself over someone who doesn’t find me all that appealing” because he called her sweet and not-for-him, and knowing it’s thad he’d say it not in a bad way, irks me. like UGH fine here we go. but i should’ve known a cocky confident character would be paired with an insecure one.
i  love her character development (redevelopment?) though.
