(My review somehow vanished from my notes app, so I'll try to piece my memories together)
This was... interesting.
Parts of this felt like a story I would write as a teenager, bit in a good way! It had somewhat classic/nostalgic ya edgy story vibes, that were honestly quite enjoyable.
Other parts felt somewhat crazy and messed up.
I must say that I did not expect the twist at the end. I suspected different twists, some of which did indeed happen, but that twist behind the end was unexpected.
This was an entertaining and quick read for sure.
