I liked this book, it’s got a few flaws however. one main one was the amount of incest involved, it was a bit offputting. however, it was still a good read.

This one was definitely on the YA end of the CoHo spectrum. I think I would’ve liked it more as a teenager myself. 

I struggled between being annoyed with the main character and wanting to give her a hug. A lot of the commentary in this one is too heavy handed, which is often one of my complaints with CoHo books. Maybe teenagers need it. 

It’s somehow both extremely quirky and truly sad. I don’t really feel affection toward any of the characters, and the entire plot was them working through their own issues. But it was interesting at the end of the day. Hard to describe how I feel about this one.

If you’re thinking about reading, look up the content warning list. The “steamy” scenes were extremely mild but there’s quite a bit about suicide and depression, amongst other things.
