The Music of What Happens by Bill Konigsberg
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
2.5
This just wasn’t good tbh:
1. The dialogue is so cringy at points that i had to pause like every two lines
2. The book is not at all like the synopsis
3. Jordan was highly unlikeable and extremely whiny
4. It should have come with trigger warnings because this sounded like a cute little ya gay romance story, but a big part of this is about rape and a gambling addiction.
I could go on for longer, but I just want to move on from this
