Holy shit! I had HIGH expectations thanks to booktok and let me say they were met! The world building is impeccable, the prison was so well written you could feel what Brex was experiencing. Points lost for wasting Kek’s character (or is it?)

Not as great as all the hype but entertaining despite not loving most of the characters and thinking the main character is a sex craved idiot at times.

This book had me laughing so hard I haven’t leave reading a book in so long. I also was angry annoyed and everything under the sun which is a plus in my book because it made me feel, The characters are very lovable and you easily connect to the good ones in easily hate the bad ones! I would definitely recommend. 
Bitzy and Opie were my favorite I love reading about them especially Opie outfits!
