Oh man! I really liked this book at the end, but I had such a hard time with how unlikable the characters could be!!! But, it's literally a modernized Pride and Prejudice, so the author was totally right, and I loved it and how real the people were.  

I was REALLY worried about transphobia for a hot minute, but while transphobia was discussed, and people were homophobic, most of the main cast of characters were not, so deep breath thank you!!!! I appreciated the realistic-ness of it, but as someone queer, I would be careful if you have bad reactions to it!!!! Keep yourselves safe and happy :)
