I couldn’t really get into the physical copy when I tried reading it, so I ended up listening to it on audio. The writing was alright and the characters were somewhat interesting. Nothing really exciting about it. Just an average read for me.

This story was incredible. It tackles many difficult topics and subjects in a way I found to be refreshing. The characters are relatable and seem like they could be average people we meet and not some over the top fiction. I loved this story and highly recommend the read.

In good news, this is a relatively short book that doesn’t require brain power. In bad news, the characters are meant to be hated, the plot never has any interesting twists, and the ending is kind of dumb. There’s very little growth from any of the characters, and it’s a book about snotty privileged kids. This was definitely not a favorite of mine.
