I enjoyed the writing of this book. From the beginning I enjoyed it, but I did not enjoy the back and forth toxicity from Steven. Steven was very cringey, narcissistic, and had no consideration for women. It seems like he was taking his mother abandonment issues out on these woman. It took the beginning to the end of the book to help us understand from the first four pages that Steven and Lucy would not end up together; he didn’t deserve her and she needed to figure her mess out sooner.
