it was too much, Kellen was talking to wavy like she’s his girlfriend. He called her his “ bike b*tch “ and I didn’t like that. It was soooo weird how he talked about her, it made me very uncomfortable. I had such high hopes for this book, maybe I couldn’t finish it because I either couldn’t relate to it , or I’m sensitive🤷🏻‍♀️. Anyway I will never touch or look at this book ever again! Thank you.

Amazing! Such a compelling read. It had a bit of a slow start for me, but it didn't take long to pick up and then it was super hard to put down.
