3.5
Started off really promising but didn’t pull through by the end.
They kept mentioning Sadie’s past/her family but never really explained what happened, so this part was still a giant question mark by the end of the story. I thought it would be a significant part of the story, considering her last made her the way she is now (insecure, pushes people away, etc) so I expected more of a closure or growth in this regard.
Jack’s character had a lot of potential to be one of my faves in the beginning, but over time I felt that he became flatter and flatter. His backstory was at least more established than Sadie’s though.
In terms of plot, not very memorable and I didn’t find myself too invested in it.
