Very boring book, almost DNF. Unnecessarily long, moves incredibly slowly and the book as a whole feels really disjointed.
Characters are not very likeable which is such a shame. Rather a lot of nastiness which isn’t really applicable to the context of the story so it just seems unnecessary. Together with the general nastiness of the characters there’s also too much fat shaming talk for my liking as well as the occasional racist/sexist/homophobic comment from a character which I didn’t like.
Ending was stupid. Would not recommend.
Satisfactory ending? No.

cheyenneb's review
This book was very filled with body shaming and gross characters. I only got about 50 pages in when the main character Lucy was describing her boss and literally talking about how imagining having sex with him made one of her friend's puke. It was just mean spirited and aged really poorly. It also talked incessantly about Meridia and how she was 200 pounds and every time she was mentioned it seemed like there was something mentioned about her weight or her size and I just don't have time for that.
