It's a dumpster fire. But I like this dumpster fire. I love these disaster lesbians and I live for this enemies-to-lovers stuff.

My only problems with it are that they're too young for me and it gets repetitive. Can't stand the brothers, too. I literally can't tell them apart except sometimes Macon. Actually, there are times that I get confused with Clay and Olivia's character voices because they're kind of similar.

I love seeing WLW representation, but there were parts of this where I felt gross for reading it. And the use of the word "UGH!" was too much for me.

Let me start by saying I'm a pretty big fan of Penelope Douglas. While I did thoroughly enjoy this book, I just didn’t enjoy it as much as some of her others! 

I had a really hard time empathizing with the “bully” character in this bully romance. I do think Douglas did a great job illustrating some very real conflicts certain communities face and I loved that she did that! 

Overall, it was a nice journey of self discovery. Would definitely recommend to a friend.

As always, check your trigger warnings before reading. 

Happy Reading 😮‍💨📚
