This novella showed true and slow character development. Rather pleasant than entertaining to read. It's just okay overall. But some things need to be said:
- Lily going to therapy was NEEDED. Everybody say "thank you Rose"
- let's say interesting spicy scenes
- a bit too much Lily time that can feel annoying some parts but intimate on others
- the Ryke × Daisy situation is worrisome. I don't know what you need to take to find this cute but building a relationship between a 16 and 22 year old is risky. To say the least
- Daisy is such an fascinating character ngl but the eating disorder situation made me uncomfortable as well as her "friend" group
- Connor. WHERE WAS HE. I need the daily dose of the confident smart douchebag
-> I need to give heads up to the authors, very courageous to publish a novella that focuses on needed but maybe dragging development.
