3,5 rounded down. 
Okay yeah, I get it, I get why everyone loves M.L. Rio now. Really gotta start reading If We Were Villains. Anywho, the writing was beautiful, the descriptions felt very vivid and I loved how real the characters felt. The story was also pretty interesting.
However, this should have been longer. Much longer. As much as I loved the characters I felt like we didn't get to know them enough to really feel for them I mostly found myself wishing that I got to know them better. Same with the main plot, it all happened so fast that I was just starting to get excited when it was over. Also I think I just developed lung cancer from all that secondhand smoke.
