My favorite line in the book “At the end of the day, you have to decide what you want to accept in a relationship” I think it sums up the dynamics of Leah’s codependency as she learns what she’s willing to accept or not overtime.

I’m so tired of books that expect me to just accept that the main characters are in love without ever actually demonstrating how or why. The romance in this was so hollow. The portrayal of drug addiction was so surface level. I didn’t care for the pacing, the main character was insufferable, the whole “I’m in school to be a writer” plot was super corny. The audiobook was so painfully melodramatic for no reason. This whole book just didn’t work for me at all.
