This had a lot of potential but the last 25% or more of the book made me want to jump off a cliff. Honestly it should’ve just been sooo much shorter and the pacing was ROUGH the third act breakup happened like at the beginning or middle of the novel?? I was reading this just to get to the end when i had already gotten so far and I lowkey wish I hadn’t. Lots of wattpad cliches, she calls him BUB multiple times unironically and whines about how her supportive parents give her anxiety PLZ!! The storyline with Aaron’s villain arc was more interesting than chapters upon chapters of the MC’s talking through all the reasons they love each other please stfu!! The sex was good though ?? So I guess if you only want to read for that then go off? So many of the characters were unnecessary (like they could have been combined into one or two people) or completely forgotten about, all the “boys” were written extremely unrealistic - I’m sorry but college hockey boys are not ALL that NICE and mature this is not a found family plzzz!! I think that’s all my complaints I would love to hear why this book is so popular I tried I really did
