Listen this was Dark in the bullying. Like to the point only one of the male leads has any redeeming qualities, but this was so addicting to read. I really like our main character and think she’s strong, but kind of makes dumb decisions sometimes. I didn’t realize there’s a student teacher aspect which I’m not sure how I feel. Honestly I only like one of the guys so far because he’s the only one showing a single ounce of kindness. I’m interested to see how the romance can even develop. The end of this was kind of crazy.
