this wasn’t a bad book. it had quite a good story and i enjoyed reading about him falling in love both with her and her son.
however, and this i write with no hate towards the author, i think the writing style of this book wasn’t really my thing. i usually skimmed over parts of it if i could.
but i enjoyed the story.

This definitely set feminism back at least a decade.
I really disliked how aggressively and toxically protective Justin was. His relationship with Dylan was better developed than his relationship with Carolina. While I think the author accurately portrayed what living in poverty is like, I disliked how little of a personality she gave Caroline. I don’t think there was a single chapter in which Caroline wasn’t crying. While displaying emotion is totally fine, her excessive crying paired with his toxic (you need me to protect you at all times and i know whats best energy) made her seem helpess.
