storytimewithlily 's review for:
Filthy Rich Boys
by C.M. Stunich
Trigger warnings for the entire series: bullying, harrasment, attempted suicide, alcoholism, drug use, assault (sexual and physical), child abuse, abandonment, homophobic people.
I very much appreciate that the bully-romance wasn't acted out in one book where the MC gets bullied and then falls in love and dates her bully and lives happily ever after all in the course of one book. I appreciate the growth of the characters and how people weren't forgiven right away and they had to earn it. I also like the no-bullying message.
Also appreciate how when certain sexist or otherwise tropes were used, that it was commented on (a little on the nose, but I appreciate a self aware author).
***
Surprisingly liked it.
Definitely liked the ending. Marnye's actions annoyed me quite a bit, but still enjoyed this one.
