I did not like BJ and Magnolia. I hate the premise of the book. I was annoyed while reading, always hoping thinks would turn out exactly the opposite. Not worth the pain I felt while reading.

BJ is so condescending. He knows he made mistakes, mistakes he cannot even explain with good reasons. For him to even think he deserves her back... Is so delusional. And him wanting her to also take blame. No way! She did not cheat, she just had flings (without sex) after you led her down. Meanwhile you slept with her best friend and then everyone else in the whole of London and blamed your drug use on Magnolia. It is so clear they are not and were never meant to be. And all the other characters supporting their toxic relationship are also so frustrating. Only good character was Tom, he at least really cared for Magnolia. Also why did everyone have to be intertwined with more than one person? Ahh so frustrating. Also I hate all the brand name dropping. Yeah I realise you're rich but shut up!
