This was really uncomfortable to read, mostly because I think it did a good job in portraying toxic masculinity, locker room talk and all kinds of those haunting things in high school context. It was very unexpected the turns and actions of some characters when I started reading just for the fondness of groundhog day kind of plots. I won't rate this for now as I need time to digest and recover the nausea I had at some parts. The ending was really good and I felt like it did justice as best it could.
