HEEEEEY THIS BOOK PISSED ME THE F--- OFF AND THREW ME INTO A READING SLUMP LMAO
New Orleans x debutante ball setting x atmosphere was super fun and immersive at first, but then fell a bit off because we focused more on the character dynamics (which is fine, I just noticed it lol).
The internal dialogue of the characters sometimes sounded a bit juvenile & I struggled to sympathize with some of their motivations.
The twists and turns were well paced but the ending really pissed me off 😭
