i enjoyed the ending but the story and characters and writing were cringey. there were a few interesting themes touched on but overall wasn’t a massive fan. typically not a great fan of this trope anyway.

Robinne needs to have a restraining order against her, she is a pedophile, and disgusting. This book was so hard to read but i did it to watch the movie. Soléne is a creepy, old, selfish, stuck up, pretentious woman. I hated the way she described people younger than her, from random people to her own daughter i was appalled. And its worse bc the people she was talking about in a creepy way are my current age group. Hayes deserved so much better. What their relationship was, was never love. Justice for Isabelle, she was the strongest character and i felt so bad for her. And Daniel knew, he warned Soléne and she was irresponsible. She was also so weak for throwing up at the thought of a young boy band member being non monogamous. Also i dont know anything about art and it felt like so much of that was only included so that Robinne could show off. Also the halfway fade to black was annoying.

Solene is a 39 year old divorced mother of a 13 year old girl. Being the great mother she is, she takes her daughter and her friends to see their favorite boy band. When the girls get to meet the band, she stands back to watch the girls have their moment. That’s when one of the 20 year old boy band members starts laying on the charm and flirting with her. I mean, what could really happen? She’s twice his age, it’s not like it could be anything real. Right?
