i think this was a hate-read. justice for quentin. this… felt weirdly disappointing. i liked the side characters far better than the main pair. i wish the whole thing was eleanor’s chapters. there are portions of this book that were really beautiful and heartbreaking and honest, but i kept getting lost in how unlikeable and at times abusive everyone was.
