I've read a few books from Holly Bourne before that I really liked so was looking forward to this, but unfortunately the main character in this book made the whole story really difficult to enjoy. These teenagers felt both too old and too young. The messaging was... Rough. The pedophilia was tackled... Oddly I guess? You sort of get the feeling the protagonist only decides it's wrong because they break up. I don't know. I'd miss this one
