I’m not entirely sure what inspired me to pick up this book, it’s not my usual genre & after reading it I’m confused… Let’s unpack this… it’s supposed to be set in 2030 but feels a lot more like 2018. Progressive, it is not… it almost feels more behind than 2024. Eartha is meant to be a straight girl who realizes she’s always been just a little bit gay… or bisexual… but the whole vibe just feels off the mark. There was this weird “director’s cut” that kept getting inserted into the story… made no sense to me. And the odd thriller/mystery ending? My face is literally 🫤 I finished it, but I can’t say I enjoyed it!
