I truly don’t understand how this book has so many 5-star ratings but I’m just hoping it encourages them to read more in the genre to actually find the 5-star ones. 🩵 this book was VERY Y.A. (didn’t know that before I got it) full of privilege and ignorance. So perfectly teen. I wanted to read it before watching the series but I feel like the series will probably be better than the book? Idk but also WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DO BARNEY LIKE THAT?!?! 😩😩😩
