If It Makes You Happy by Claire Kann
3.0

2.5/5 rounded up.
First off let me just say this cover is everything!

I started off really liking this book and I did enjoy most things about it. What made me enjoy it less over time was Winnie and Kara's relationship. More so just Kara in general and I was seeing a lot of red flags about her character early on. Winnie apologized far too much when Kara was constantly avoiding taking responsibility for her own actions and taking the longest to apologize for some very unhealthy behavior. All of that really bothered me, Kara just comes off as really possessive.

Other than that I did enjoy this book, I really liked Winnie as a character, she was relatable and funny and the most caring.
