What's so wild about this book is that I honestly cannot decide if I loved it or hated it?

Somehow absolutely nothing happens while at the same time so much happens?
I love how real and flawed these characters are. I'm always up for reading about a messy, real, toxic relationship and this was definitely that. 

I don't know that I liked the ending. I think what made this book something I didn't want to put down was how truly messy and real and honestly pointless it felt, which somehow made it more special. And (**potential spoiler(s)**) ending it on such a high note with every lose end tied and most everyone in a generally good spot felt like it took away at least some of the depth for me.
