Started this early December and realised I needed to finish it asap, managing on the first day of January 2024. Although I spent the majority of the book not liking the main characters for a variety of reasons, there was something that made me want them to get their fairytale ending...and unfortunately 10 pages from the end, I found the protagonists considerably redeemed themselves by the end (no spoilers). Still trying to understand my emotions for this one. I guess feeling a bit crappy because it's really broken my heart and I never picked up on the warning signs ah! Read at your own peril (do read it but check out trigger warnings first).
