DID NOT FINISH: 54%

Depressed teens with disfunctional parents who let them/encourage them to make unhealthy relationship decisions. The writing was good; just not into the story.

I usually love a story like this with many characters I just don’t think it was executed well. I’m not interested in love squares and I’m not interested in a whole town being obsessed with the star boy and then upset that he’s full of himself
