um so basically the book was pretty good. The twist at the ends with the principal being the mom of Misha was pretty cool. I liked the ending, it was satisfying with Misha being a rockstar and them being not only content, but happy. I like how they kept their romance alive along the years. We are so proud of Misha and Ryen (for her character development). Loved them as characters and loved their story.Graphic: Eating disorder, Drug abuse, Bullying, Death, Child death, Panic attacks/disorders, Blood, Sexual harassment, and Pregnancy

The sub-plot is so mid tho, the whole bullying thing is so extra. I wish it was more epistolary it would seem more intimate but oh well.
Honestly I have a lot to say about the initial abuse. Like I know Penelope was like I don’t want to make likeable characters but there’s a difference between flawed characters and fully abusive characters. Does he get better at the end? Yes. But if someone I know that I was teasing pulled me into their lap in public and licked my neck then said I tasted like shit… yeah no. I would never do what she did however what he did was not matching the energy. Also I don’t think she consented to most of the dynamic.
