I have mixed feelings on this. It is objectively, well written, compelling, and interesting. Did I enjoy it? Not really. I’m so used to reading romances (which this is not—it’s a love story but it’s not a romance) that this kind of book where everyone is terrible and everyone makes terrible decisions and thinks and does terrible things, is a shock to my system. Glad I read it though.
