4.75/5 stars

OKAYYYYYYYYY WOAH. Listen. Wait. Hold on. What? Woah. Woah. Woah. Now THISSSSS was a STORY omg.

Now I will not lie, up to about 60%, this book was almost unbearable for me. I will be wholeheartedly honest. The multiple third person POVs, the time jumps, the wordy-ness of the entire book....it just really struggled to keep my attention. Then there was a lot of emphasis put on what era of time each chapter was, the mentions of COVID, of political climates, of music artists.....ehhhhhh I'm just not really a fan of that tbh. I know it was important in the context of this book, but i HATE being reminded of real life in books
