I've loved Lisina Coney's books ever since her first, and when I heard she was releasing a darker romance, I knew I had to read it. I have always thought she handles sensitive topics in a really respectful way, and I believe she did just as well with this one as her others. Social media is a circus, one that children shouldn't be a part of. This book to it to an extreme that, unfortunately, does exist in real life, and I think it would be important if a lot more people read this book, even if it weren't for the romance aspect, which I loved. This was beautifully written and hats off to Coney for writing another amazing book. I'd read another like this from her in a heartbeat.
