0.25

The .25 is because Fallon is amazing. Ben is the worst thing to every exist 
The sexual assault scene in the bar made me hate him, this book, and made it nearly impossible to finish. She says no several times to him and he keeps going. They then just brush past this?? What the hell! Genuinely fucked up that Colleen Hoover doesn’t address how he assaulted her and just plays it off as she loves him back so it’s fine. Great book if you want to cry over how genuinely fucked up the things he does are. She has no confidence and forgives him/takes the blame for things in the end… what in the manipulative hell?!?
  Horrible book overall.
