SO ANTICLIMACTIC! The only reason why I finished this book was just to see what happened at the end, and thankfully I was invested enough to keep reading, but I'm disappointed. I also found the characters to be just so stupid in the beginning, but it was entertainingly stupid. Something I did love, which I've never seen in any other book I've read so far, is the story being framed in the form of a letter. The plot twist, I didn't see coming, and I wish there was more of an explanation to what happens in the end, causeeee yeah that's just messed up lol
