I couldn’t put this down; I ended up finishing it in two days. I loved the MC, and her struggles with anxiety really hit home for me, though I didn’t connect with most of the other characters. The romance felt rushed, and I strongly disliked the best friend. This would be a 4.5 or 5 for me if I hadn’t hated the ending so much.
