Oh man, idk what to feel about this book, but I definitely liked it. The first chapter is definitely the slowest one and hardest to get through imo, but after that, things don't stop!
It's not as erratic as I thought it would be, but it certainly kept me reading/listening.And that ending?? What the heck was that ending?? I rly liked it but the last chapter left me really fucking sad omg,,,
