Boys I Know by Anna Gracia

4.0

arc provided in exchange for an honest review, thank you peachtree + netgalley!
so... that was a trip
solid 3.75/5 stars tbh
i did really enjoy this book, i think it was highly relatable
the main character goes through multiple realizations about herself and her wants in a high-pressure asian household which hit a little too close to home
my one problem with the book is that the ending felt way too open-ended in the way that nothing really happened. we are never really shown the aftermath of her decisions or realizations in an attempt to better herself
one thing i really did like, though, was how the messy guys were left behind. june goes through a string of relationships and guys, but then realizes that they are all trash and she deserves better (as she should)
i did like the relationship and the learning moment that happened between june and her sister; i thought that was really sweet
overall a great read, though! (+1 for the wonderful cover)
