second ali hazelwood book in a row and this is DEFINITELY my favorite from her. Y'ALL. i was EATING. THIS. UP.
mallory and nolan are EVERYTHING to me and you KNOW WHAT! mallory is better than me because i would've done a LOT more than just call sabrina a bitch. i'm a younger sister and i'm an older sister and i would NEVER talk to or treat any of my siblings the way sabrina treated mallory - idc how old sabrina is. SHE MADE ME SO MAD.
to be HONEST i feel like everyone except nolan was a little unfair to mallory and try to make it seem like she didn't have the right to feel the way she felt and tried to downplay her feelings. sabrina AND easton especially. idk if because i think the same way as mallory a lot of ways (i.e. not liking the fact that sometimes i need to ask for help, the fear of being a burden lolz) and maybe that makes both of us unreliable narrators or whatever - BUT WHATEVER!!!!!! i got your back, mallory. i will protect you.
anyway, back to more important things: <mallory&nolan333333
i will be thinking of them always and forever. sam, chas and morgan this one is for you (again) MWAH
