I'm not sure how I feel about this book. It feels a bit slow and boring at times and it's not really scratching the itch.

I find the bullying from Mean Girl April weird and out of place. I don't know why so much of the book took place at the university. Are we going back in the second book?

The MMC are fire, but the FMC are... weak, I suppose? She had a tough upbringing so I guess her issues and personality makes sense. And I'm sure we'll see a stronger side of her in the second book!

The flaws are the main focus as that’s all there is to these characters. They’re all vomit inducing.
