what the hell did i just read? i was expecting more man. that was messy. kaleb. kaleb. kaleb. idk. felt kind of random but like it wasn't? she had more chem w the other two. idk. honestly did think it might end in a throuple but no.
i would've enjoyed this if she weren't 17 for a good 1/3 of the book & then freshly 18. if she had been older, it would've had some more interesting nuance & connection but it just felt like... grooming & taking advantage of a child. yes, a child, bc i remember when i was 18 & i was far from feeling like an adult – she had also gone through something traumatic so it just gave me the ick.
all the men in this were just bad men. like point blank period. no good men. this was just nuts. idk. a shame bc i did enjoy a different book by ms. douglas but not this one. man. also mirai is kind of insane for getting w jake after she found out ab everything???? bye. booktok, im never taking you seriously ever again! & don't get me started w the weird fetishization of wlw.
