mmm meh. i usually enjoy romances with mental ill MCs but this guy was too unlikeable tbh. and so was the love interest. the entire book was about him being a bad person and also having bpd and depression. so whenever he wasn’t depressed (which was depressing to read), he was being an asshole (which was annoying to read). and it was hard to tell why the LI even liked him. and hard to tell why he liked the LI since he only ever thought of him as a dumb, orange, gullible airhead. the sex was pretty good though i guess. and that last chapter was a masterpiece of writing. very moving dialogue and made me feel even though i didn’t particularly care about either character
