I’m honestly not sure how i finished this book. i considered dnf-ing multiple times due to boredom, and then did that cycle like 5 times??? So here are your stars, i guess.
The plot is bonkers, and somehow was still sooooooo boring to me. Every single twist was painfully obvious, and the chemistry between Tansy and Gemma was saccharine in a very cloying way. The best way i can think to describe this book is having a trope wheel in front of you, spin it 5 times, and write that down.
I didn’t hate my reading experience, but i also didn’t *enjoy* it.
