I mean this so sincerely when i say this book angered me so much i have no clue how to rate it. As a form of art, i applaud its ability to make me feel something. However, the psychological ware fare and depth of the descriptions of abuse definitely made me uncomfortable… i both applaud the author and hope she gets her mental health checked up lmao <3 i genuinely do not know how to rate this novel.

This book made me sad :(( 
The main relationship was abusive and I don't like abusive :(( I picked up this book because it kept getting recommended, had good ratings and was described as funny - but I didn't know it'd be about a meanie person :(( the narrator/style kinda made me think of Bridget Jones - which already isn't my vibe so I didn't get the funny :((
It was also a bit more explicit than I was expecting but ig that's on me. Books about toxic relationships are not not my vibe - I be saddened.
