Ok hear me out😭 I’m not the brightest star in the sky but first-half-of-the-book Kristen kind of just felt like an asshole to me. I know the book was trying to give her this “cool girl doesn’t care about what people think of her and look she’s just so herself all of the time” vibe but it just came off as rude to me. I genuinely almost dnf-ed like two chapters in, I really can’t stand rude for no reason characters. AND THE SHIT THE AUTHOR PULLED WITH BRENDAN?? No. Absolutely not. Count your days Abby Jimenez you complete monster. Idgaf what purpose that was supposed to fulfill but they could have kissed and made up with him still alive ok? Irreconcilable damage to my heart. And Tyler… man I still feel for him💔 maybe it’s bc he literally was word for word, bar for bar my perfect dream guy that I really could not see it. And I hate small mean yappy dogs

But let’s be real, for all that shit it’s the pretty good the book still managed to get 3 stars. THE BINDER. BRO THE ACTUAL FUCKING BINDER. he could have gotten me pregnant with it. Live laugh LOVE Joshua
