Oh My God. She's delulu ðŸ˜ðŸ˜Â
But the fact that it's written in June's perspective makes it a struggle because she's constantly reassuring herself of her behavior, and she's an unreliable narrator because she pushes her biased opinions onto the readers of others, consistently pushing down anyone and everything that she deems 'below her'.Â
For reference, this is how she talks about her EIGHT-YEAR-OLD NEICE; "an iPhone-addicted, Tik-Tok-obsessed basic bitch in training." What??? 💀
