I found it hard to like Charlie, and Ever was a bit of an idiot, too, with a dumb name. Charlie is so bent on keeping his fuck buddy he tries over and over to prevent her from finding someone to have a happy relationship with.... shitty. Later he realizes he’s in love with her. Doesn’t really excuse what he did when he just wanted in her pants, but the author really tries to twist it to make it romantic. 

Both Ever and Charlie were raised by idiots who teach them some really toxic and harmful lifestyle choices, and somehow they both make it to the age of 23 without confiding this horseshit to a friend or somehow discovering it’s dumb, and they really don’t seem to know any better. This book just wasn’t for me.
