I really enjoyed this read! I was rooting for Wavy! However, the primary relationship in this story left me feeling very conflicted.

1.0

Glorified and celebrated pedophilia, plain and simple. I don’t care about the nuance of the protagonist’s childhood and trauma; there is no such thing as a “love story” that begins with  a 20-something year old man and an 8 year old CHILD.
