The People We Keep by Allison Larkin

Did not finish book. Stopped at 52%.
DNF @ 52%. I just can’t do it. I really struggled with the age and immaturity of our narrator, and I questioned multiple times whether this should have been labeled as Young Adult. A summary of the first 100 pages: she dropped out of high school, ran away from home, got a job at a coffee shop in her new city, and slept in some random guy’s bed. Cool. As I kept reading, she developed a relationship with a man twice her age. It was so gross and really gave me the ick. I felt like I was reading April’s diary and not a fully formed novel. No. 🤢
