Things We Never Got Over by Lucy Score
Did not finish book. Stopped at 47%.
1) No town in Northern Virginia works this way, and no town that works this way would consider itself in NoVA
2) the hero is not particularly likable and is the ‘bad’ sibling but gets a redemption arc while the ‘bad’ sibling that’s a woman is even called a ‘bad seed’ by the hero! The lack of empathy for a person who made terrible choices and zero examination of why that person may have made the choices they did is appalling. It doesn’t absolve a person of their choices…but yeesh.
