i’ve been waiting to get my hands on this one for a while and now that i have it all i can say is WOW HOLY SHIT IT WAS WORTH IT not even exaggerating this is one of those books that will leave you thinking about it for a week afterward and honestly maybe forever like it’s so captivating because donna starts it so like GOOD and then you’re waiting the entire book for the conclusion of the prologue but then she says haha you fucks and HITS WITH THE BIGGEST TWIST and it’s not only entertaining it’s also a book that will make you feel like smart for reading it it just makes you THINK do not put this book off because your afraid it might b too intense or whatever no read it now it’s fun and weird and sad and complicated and you will regret it if you put off reading it for another second
