3.0

This book had me feeling anything but rest and relaxed. Oh my god. Also,
When I was 3/4 into the book I was pretty concerned that all the remaining pivotal people in the mc's life just got transferred to work on the twin towers whilst the book is set on the year 2000. I have seen so many booktubers mention this book, yet no one warned about that, I was shocked. I really did not like the end scene, the way she described Reva kind of made me physically ill.
Overall, I did not really benefit from reading this, but you might like it if you are looking for something very dark and self destructive.
