I liked the OCD representation but I found the female MC lacked depth. I felt like her whole personality was just about her mental illness and boys. The whole topic of feminism was also talked too much about, I often wondered if I was still reading fiction or just an essay. Overall I found the story quite disappointing, the writing style wasn’t great either.
