Es passiert leider viel zu viel in diesem Buch. Gerade auf den letzten 40 Seiten.
Und ich persönlich bin kein Fan des Schreibstils. Es fühlt sich zu cringe an.

Die Hauptperson Georgian ist einfach nicht nachvollziehbar und ich hatte viele „wtf“ Momente während dem Lesen.

Not without its problems. For one is the rampant outright biphobia throughout a lot of the book. However, this is also talked about and called out as wrong, so I guess that redeems the book a bit. I found the mc annoying at times but mostly just felt bad for her (not to be too harsh to a fictional character, but she was just kind of pathetic a lot of the time). Her self loathing clearly coloured every little thing she did, and it read as though every other sentence was her  doubting herself. I think the depiction of queerness is one of the most accurate I’ve ever read. It felt relevant to modern queer life, and I feel as though I know about a hundred women like Kit (or really like each of the characters). But it still didn’t verge into being caricatures, which I appreciated also. Overall it was quite a gripping read, as I was very interested to see who she would end up with (and I liked the ending)
