The trigger warnings are no joke. I have barely ever been triggered by a book but this was hard to get through at times.
It's insta love too and the ending was kinda unsatisfying.
For how hard it is to read, I am still giving it 3 stars because it felt honest in those parts.
Edit: nah the more I think about it the less I like it. Lowering.
