My feelings for this book are quite complicated.
Things i liked:
- Jake and Felix’s relationship
- their love
- the cute text messages
- cj and jake’s relationship (flawed, but good)
Things I didnt like:
- at first it felt VERY insta lovely
- Jake definitely had anger issues which threw me off a lot
- a lot of unnecessary cursing (im not against cursing, but when it happens every 2 seconds, it felt like too much)
- sometimes the guys felt like 17 year olds
- the whole military plotline was so unnecessary
- the cheating trope was soo unnecessary, considering we didnt get any backstory or development there
- that one super racist and homophobic character was so unnecessary
- some side characters were just so useless in the story, they added nothing and we learned nothing about there
I love that this book discusses drug addiction and trauma, but I wish it was a bit more in depth
