2.0

The story itself was okay but the FMC was a pick me (~I’m not like other girls~) and the MMC was your standard ex-military guy (setting my phone down while I throw up in my mouth real quick). Both reeked of internalized misogyny and it was hard for me to get past in order to finish the book. I kept hoping the book would get better but unfortunately it just never did.
