Wtf did I just read? 

I have seen many people either loving this book or completely hating it, there seems to be close to no middle ground here, and I am definitely on the side of the people who loved it. 
This was a train wreck for sure and while reading it I felt like I was driving through a forest with at least 200 km/h and you're wondering like "why am I doing this" and "what's going on" and there are branches hitting you and suddenly you almost hit a deer and it's scary and out of control but in the best way. 
At no point did I ever expect this to go where it went in the end and I'm still somewhat in shock. But I loved every second of it. 

I guess this is probably not for everyone but it was definitely for me.

All in all, a very well-written book. A captivating story full of twists and turns, with characters that are so well-constructed it seems like you get to actually know them. However, it's also a roller-coaster, so knotted and loopy that you wind up confused and waiting for more. Its such a bizarre story, but I do recommend it.

Just finished the book. Staring at my kindle in quiet shock. So many twists and turns while still being a deeply emotional story. Samantha felt so real and relatable that even as she fucked up, evidently made the worst choices ever, I couldn’t help but root for her and cry with her when things went south. In these types of books it's so easy to write a main character that is snotty and uninteresting because of their outside-ness but Mona made Samantha's head a warm and welcoming place to be in - she is every single one of us who ever had the misfortune of having to work with rich people, and she doesn't blame herself for feeling justified resentment at the bullshit around her.

Also Ava and Samantha had more chemistry than half of the famous gay relationships that are lauded about as the hottest thing in every single social media app. I'm gonna go cry in a fetal position now, BYE.
