2.0
The pretentiousness that runs through the entirety of this book ruins what is an interesting premise. It started out strong but has long bursts of stagnant character development and the sense of waiting for the other shoe to drop, which, when it does, is rushed and not as satisfying as one would hope. It tries too hard to be clever but fails to hit, and comes off as a pick-me novel.
Moderate: Death, Infidelity, Toxic relationship, Murder, Gaslighting, and Classism
