Hm. I enjoyed this book but had issues with it. It started off good - very lighthearted, sister hood, suburbia vibes. I found myself really devouring the cheesy storylines lol. It was a little difficult to keep track of all the characters at first but that was my only initial complaint. Here is my qualm: the book touched on a myriad of strong themes (TW: infidelity, sexual assault, self-harm) but didn’t really delve into any of them. This book would’ve been a 5-star if it had given these topics the justice they deserved. Sometimes I felt like the book was throwing some of these topics in bc they are “hot” topics.
