There were snippets I read and it did feel deep and philosophical, as though Blake herself was peering into my soul and wrote the words on paper. Then all the other parts, they just⌠muddled together. I started skipping pages and pages of waffle which of course is charlottes mania. But the message to do with mental health therapy and TAKING MEDICATION I hated. I study psychology and counselling at university and there is absolutely in my mind a support for therapy, and sometimes medical intervention where therapy is not effective enough, this story says screw therapy and screw my meds!Â
I understand that the FMC is bipolar and maybe thatâs why she never bought it up but the therapist should of saw them signs earlier.Â
Also aldo and his father are a wonderful story and I actually enjoyed it mostly when they were talking to each otherÂ
Also also, sex doesnât heal everything!!!!!!
TLDR; not my type of genre, which I learnt through reading this, and the writing style⌠some good moments but a lot was not, although that does relate to the FMC personality.Â
Check trigger warnings.Â

The prose was AMAZING and had so many good quotes. I did find myself disliking Reganâs choices and thought processes, but I did empathize with her. I identified a lot with Aldo and his struggles for human connection and finding his purpose in life.Â

Not sure how to categorize Reganâs relationship with her family - itâs super toxic but not explicitly abusive. A lot of it stems from her mental health struggles and how her past choices in crime affect her relationships.jbellomy's review

*Regan is out here representing the neurodivergent trust fund babies who are fully incapable of holding down a real job. Though I do not approve of her male manipulator ways, gotta appreciate the rep. She just like me for real.
