One day I'll finish reading this book (I've stopped at halfway through over a year ago because it's so bad) and then I'll update and post my long list of everything wrong with this book. But for now 0/10 would not recommend, equally cringey as sad girls. Not being intentionally mean; I enjoyed all her poetry books before her fiction attempts.
I will say though that not only does it feel like the biggest cop-out to never include any of Verity's "god-tier" level writing (but I get it, taste is subjective) but to then have scenes like when she first reads her poetry to a group and it goes like "I started reading my poetry, I was so scared and nervous, but everyone gasped the entire time and by the end everyone was crying and applauding me saying they'd never heard anything so beautiful" especially as this reads entirely as a self-insert fanfic.
