slow-paced

The first part of this book was amazing, I thought it would be 5 stars, and I was actually enjoying it a lot until page 231!!! but then things started to go downhill and I hated it so so much. Dan and his relationship with Grace creeped me out so much,

  and the fact that they got married??? Wtf!

I also absolutely hate the miscommunication trope, and it made no sense at all in this book!!!

And the unexpected pregnancy? No thank you!

It made me sad how much this book made me angry, and even though I liked most of it, I can’t give it more than 2 stars for that stupid ass ending grrrr
