Nate and brownwyn are an amazing couple - and addys character development is so good bc at first she was insecure and always following Jake’s rules but then she became independent and just great. It does get a bit slow but then it speeds up again eventually. Also, it’s lacking tension which is why I prefer the sequel to it more (one of us is next) which is unpredictable and full of suspense. i would’ve never in a million years predicted that Simon killed himself and Jake helped him
