I DNF’ed this at 76% but I think that counts as read cus I suffered through this.

I liked it at first. I’ve been in a HUGE slump bc of ‘A Little Life’, and this made me read 200 pages in like an hour. But Ali Hazelwood just kept on mentioning sex and condooms and whatever the fuck else sexually related, and it took me out of it because it’s a YA book and I think those SHOULDN’T have talk about sex in it. Idk maybe that’s just me but Im definitely done with Ali Hazelwood and her books now.
