I must admit that this was a stick & easy read. & honestly, I'm also thrilled to read the next book of the series - although many aspects bothered me.
first of all, America. she's just so different, unique & just herself. all of the girls suffer from internal misogyny, it's so heartbreaking honestly.
the love triangle is also just so unnecessary - maybe just in my eyes because I haaate this trope.
also, the diversity?? yeah. 0. all whities ofc. I already expected just straights so I'm not surprised.
the world building was a huge let down. it kinda confused me.. a lot
