3.0

2014 wattpad vibes. The main characters are the most special girls in the whole wide world, and all of the men they interact with need to be put on a list somewhere.  A much more entertaining read when it’s not taken seriously

Content Warnings

Graphic: Bullying, Sexual assault, and Toxic relationship

Moderate: Sexual content

Minor: Death
