did this book romanticize a pedo as a love interest? i think yes…however story had its moving and riveting moments. thought some scenes captured loneliness and yearning for human connection well. but quickly started losing interest as story progressed. by the end came away feeling the attempts at emotional manipulation by the author were too obvious. characters didn’t feel realistic. also didn’t think all the povs we got were necessary.
