Everyone Knows How Much I Love You by Kyle McCarthy

2.0

I was really curious about Everyone Knows How Much I Love You given the synopsis but it didn't keep my attention. The main character, Rose, is a girl who made a mistake as a teen which ended her relationship when her best friend, Lacie. Rose has grown up...but only in age. Rose and Lacie reconnect and seem to see the same life events in different ways - which I found interesting and was curious about that dynamic. However, I found it very frustrating how Rose went out of her way constantly to be juvenile and manipulative to no real end. She's knowingly repeated unnecessary and destructive behavior which often felt unrealistic and extremely cringy.

Thank you to Ballantine Books and Random House for this ARC.
