It took me awhile to finish this novella. And it should be a quick read but I struggled to finish this that I had to convince myself not to DNF.
I can't connect to any of the characters and I feel like Hailey is always crying in almost every chapter. It also felt like this was written for YA audiences even though the characters are almost or in their mid-20s already.
I think it would've been better if there are more background stories with her stepfather. His death will have an even more impact if so. Her narcissistic father is also so random and weird? And her relationship with Eric too. One minute she's trauma dumping the next they have a “connection”. Please. Everything just fell forced and flat.
