This was okay. I enjoyed it, I guess. Except for a bunch of things. For one, I hated every single character except for Bapi and Bailey. The main girls were all terrible people who mostly didn’t have to own up for their terrible actions. Additionally, while it is YA, the writing was incredibly simplistic. So basic that I found it not enjoyable to read. Also, I wasn’t really invested in any of the stories. The only one that felt at all authentic and interesting was Tibby’s. It is for Bailey and the fact that despite everything, inexplicably, I did like this read that this gets 2 stars instead of 1. Or 0.
