This book was my friendly reminder not to get book recomendations from the "popular on tiktok" section of chapters...
The first bit was good but it soon turned into a big mess of second hand embarrassment.
Only reason I even finished was because I'm stubborn.
The relationship is really rape-y and forceful. Along with the entire plot just being rushed. Technically there is "character development" but the characters just wake up one day after being so stubborn and decide to change.
Very disappointing read.
Gave it 1.25 stars because I annotated it and being able to write how much embarrassment I was recieving made it much more enjoyable.
