4.0

I really enjoyed this book! The character work was excellent. All of the characters were multifaceted and interesting and because of that, their relationships were intriguing to follow. I loved learning about these characters and their motivations and seeing how they would react to others characters’ statements and actions. I look forward to reading more from Marissa Higgins just for her characters. 

My main qualm with this book was just that it felt rather flat, like I couldn’t tell you where the climax was. I get that it’s no plot just vibes but I would’ve preferred for a bit more rising and falling action. 

With that said, this was an impressive debut. It was a very enjoyable read and I’m excited to see what Marissa Higgins puts out next!
