The âwill they wonât theyâ element did get old and I felt like there was too much to and fro,
Spoiler
though I liked the twist with Paili at the end, and to be fair, Magnolias obsession with details made that twist fit nicely. I do wish sheâd ended up with Tom. I donât like BJ at all and didnât see what attracted them to each other. I do wish more showing, rather than telling was done when it came to the characters. We get told endlessly that Magnolia & BJ are magnetic and people are obsessed with them but no actual personality traits came through that would make me believe that other than them being conventionally good looking & rich. The rest was taking the author at their wordModerate: Drug abuse, Sexual content, Toxic friendship, Toxic relationship, Abandonment, Alcohol, Cursing, Death, Emotional abuse, Grief, Addiction, Drug use, Mental illness, Infidelity, Medical content, Panic attacks/disorders, and Vomit
