I found this book incredibly boring, hard to follow, and long. It was full of stereotypes and just not entertaining to me.

I did DNF it with two chapters left though, after trying my hardest to push through

Read for my office’s book club

Not them trying to get me to sympathize with a school shooter…

I read this for my book club, and did not like it very much. I found it a bit triggering at times and boring at others - pretty hard to get through. Honestly, it also felt like it was way longer than it needed to be.

At first I found her very unrelatable bc I haven’t gone through a party phase, but as she got older I found her insight really helpful. The stories were interesting too regardless!

Lovable characters but the plot is just a bit too dramatic and cheesy for my taste!
