The ending felt so rushed. It really could have used room to breathe and let us feel the full weight of the final action.

tkhenry99's review against another edition

3.0

This book was a bit of a let down. It was also wayyyy darker than I expected and I really wasn’t expecting Noam and Lerher’s relationship. Besides that, several of the conversations about grooming, rape, etc. got very repetitive and were the same thing every time. I also didn’t really like that Dara just had every issue the author could think of. The author had to split all the page time between the sexual abuse, substance abuse, various mental illnesses, and eating disorder so nothing ever really felt developed. It felt like Dara’s character was traumatized just for the sake of having a traumatized character, and not because the author really wanted to address any of this topics. I felt like, though the issues were obviously connected to one root cause, the author didn’t draw that connection very well and Dara’s character was undeveloped/underexplored as a result. The book would’ve benefitted from flashbacks, not just Dara and Noam thinking about past events. The ending also wasn’t very satisfying. Overall I did enjoy the book and found it engaging, but it definitely could’ve been better.
