  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

This book really creeped me out and the mystery of it all kept me going. Much more disturbing than I anticipated. I predicted some of it but was definitely surprised (and perplexed) by the ending. Authors: please STOP glorifying and/or downplaying abuse, SA, coercion, stalking... She glorifies and downplays SA, coercion, and other blurry/icky sexual behavior on multiple occasions throughout this book. Likely won't read another Colleen Hoover book because of that.
