This book seems like something that’s right up my alley, but it was such a hard read. The sheer amount of trauma the main characters experienced just became uninteresting at a certain point. There’s only so much trauma these people can experience. It felt like everyone expect the main characters were just straight villains. In addition, I found all the main characters to be so insecure and needy. I got really tired of all the crying and whining and needing reassurance from each other.
