This book started off good, and ended in an exciting (but random) way. I did enjoy reading, but the main character is infuriating - I felt the same battles she was having with no resolution had me out-loud saying “girl why!!” The self sabotage is real. I never feel bad for men, but cmon what are we doing! Would have liked to see more growth in Millie, even just in her internal dialogue. Entertaining read though, nonetheless.
