1.0

Disappointing, but on par for this author. The amount of unnecessary trauma/drama thrown into this story left a bad taste in my mouth towards all Tiffany D. Jackson books. 

How much can I witness one character be dragged through before I can no longer suspend disbelief? 

Seems like she just enjoys torturing her characters. 

The amount of colorism, racism, fat shaming, ableism, false 'mental health' representation, abuse, mentions of rape and molestation, inappropriate sexual relationships, stereotypes, and just downright torture for shock value that took place in this book - disgusting.

5.0

The way I loved every second of this book. No spoilers but I actually really loved the ending. Seems to be a heated topic in the reviews but it really worked for me. This is the 3rd book I’ve read by TDJ and she is officially a read without question author of mine. Do be mindful of trigger warnings though.
