My thoughts this entire book was that Daniel Craig meme from Knives Out “makes no damn sense. Compels me though”. This was not good lmfao. Writing was so bad, it was sexist, so much teenage DRAMA, flat characters, and literally an unrelenting amount of girl hate and YET? I would try the next one because I could see a promising plot and the world building was so interesting (in theory). Also I kinda liked Dmitri (even though I hated everyone also. Rose sucks so bad) but I will DNF immediately if I don’t like the second one cuz even though it compels me, it doesn’t compel me THAT much. Also random sidebar but the narrator made Lissa’s voice sound like the nerd girl with braces from Big Mouth and I literally could not take the book seriously because of that
