Wowza the misogyny and harassment in this book was rough (especially cause it feels like it didn’t get very resolved?). I like the work the main character (Molly) did to try and repair  the friendships that she damaged, and that she did seem to feel remorse for the mistakes she made.

Really just wanted Molly to go figure things out with her mom and stop continuously hurting her friend and falling for the bs with the manipulator. Thank the heavenssss she did not end up with either of those boys in the end. They all needed some intense therapy and time away from one another. What is this, a game of tug-o-war?!
