this was a weird one for me.
i liked the premise, but i did not care about the characters at all. i thought quentin and his friends kept sexualizing margo and other girls, which made me super uncomfortable at times and in my opinion, margo herself was pretty unlikable and entitled too.
i couldn’t bring myself to care about them and the overall plot line was not enough to make up for it.
unfortunately, this one was not for meZ
