This was…fine. Honestly it didn’t blow me away and it wasn’t completely obnoxious but I didn’t really care for it. I think I struggled the most with the writing. I mean it was a little annoying because she’s always like my stomach is like a volcano and it’s bubbling into my throat and I’m just like girl. I do not need those constant descriptions. 

I also felt like the story was kind of bland overall. I liked the sisters and I feel like we would have needed more interaction with them to get a full story. The ending was also super rushed and it felt super cheesy at points especially with Marnie’s big speech.

Overall I just don’t really care and I feel like I needed more Adhira and Whit and not so many inner monologues.
