3.0

had a promising start but ultimately fell flat. maya and aisling's relationship was compelling to me and i think the author has a niche for writing lesbian yearning but there was too much telling in the later development of their relationship before they got together instead of showing. which is bizarre considering how short the book is. i appreciated the look into the effect abuse had on aisling but the sudden reasoning for why her mother treated her that way also fell flat because there was no prior indication of it. lastly the world just felt empty at times outside of maya and aisling and while I expect protags to be the most developed there should also be something more especially given that this was not solely a romance novel.
