I'm surprised at how much I enjoyed this. The relationship was believable and both main characters were endearing. I loved how the different POVs were written and thought it was a brilliant choice by the author to get the reader inside the head of each character. I think the Justin plot-line was challenging but well handled and
showcased how difficult these situations can be despite having a relatively strong support group.
My main drawbacks were
that I hated how easily Martin got off. He should have faced some real and legitimate consequences. I also HATED the Gerty-Mo relationship! Why can't people just be friends! I'm going to pretend that Gerty and Rachel hooked up and Mo is actually asexual just so I can be happy.
