I’m sad because I wanted to love this book. So, so much, actually.

Bree- I hate her. She is so much of a pick-me. And for those people that don’t realize it, please open your eyes. Bree is constantly talking about herself or just her man. And literally she said once,”I don’t know why all his girlfriends hate me. They just have to understand our friendship is more important than.” I’m not sure if this the exact wording, but it’s what she was saying, which makes me mad. I also don’t like how she is described as petite, and small. No need for that. At all.

Nathan- Only two things I don’t like about him is the fact he growled once, and he dated girls to cover up his feelings to Bree who was in close proximity to him. Bro could have just manned up and tell her before the mark do six years, you know? I understand how this was supposed to be cute, I just couldn’t see it. I do like how caring he is though.

Overall I don’t like this book at all. This book just made me scream in frustration with the miscommunication and the obliviousness from both characters. Why did no one listen to Lily?! I was, and still am, very tempted to throw this book because of how much it made me cringe. For those that liked this book, please try to help me see how you liked it. I beg you.
