I would like to personally thank this book for busting me out of the worst reading slump I've been in so far this year. It was brought on by some drama in my personal life that kind of made picking up most books unbearable, but it turned out all I needed was this sapphic tale of revenge to get me back to myself. This book was immersive and morally complex and I enjoyed every minute of it! The writing was believable and smart without being too complicated and the pacing was excellent. Absolutely a new fave.

Carly was really giving 2012 fanfiction main character with her “i’m not like other girls, no one would find plain old me attractive, i only wear black and Doc Martens” and it was annoying. the first major twist was good but i guessed the later one right away, so after

the halfway mark

the story felt predictable
