I had a really rough time picturing Autumn as in high school. This book covers some pretty adult topics but it seems like the main character is really immature. And I get that we’re all like that in high school but it just seemed odd.

Ending however? Ruined my life. I will not be taking questions at this time.

Beginning was boring imo but I was curious to see how the book would end. Huge twist at the end that made it worth the read!

The stars are for the nostalgia of high school love and the last 10% of the book. The rest is repetitive and slow going
