  • i regret every single second i spent on this book and on it's previous installment
  • cannot express the sheer frustration
  • it tries its hardest to build on the flimsy ass foundations from the first one so of course it all falls apart
  • a literal drag
  • the main romance is completely unfounded, it's just like why? what is the reason??
  • they have absolutely no reason to be attracted to each other, or to even trust each other at this point, they're just 2 stupid fucking hets so why don't we throw them together in a weird semblance of a romance
  • the characters are so flat please, they don't have character, or personalities, they're just names on a piece of paper at this point
  • also where are the fucking content/trigger warnings??
