I’ve heard great things about this series but I found the FMC to be either unintelligent or at best obviously uneducated  combined with pathetic levels of naivety, as well as emotionally juvenile, the writing comes across as both vaguely racist and homophobic but in a way that’s difficult to determine if it’s intent or ignorance on the part of the author, and the main relationship is extremely toxic.  I’m hoping the series gets better further along.
