A review by jocelynmaae
Broken Things by Lauren Oliver

3.0

“Maybe we were always broken. Maybe I was always a liar, and Mia was always weak. Maybe what happened to Summer didn’t turn us but only revealed what was already there.”

I see the vision, and I really wish that it was fulfilled with more details. As for the romance aspect of this, it should’ve been a longer book if you wanted to romance to actually work out. AND BITCH I DIDNT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT MIA AND OWEN? I wanted the sapphics!
ABBY! Girl carried, with that omni rep too✊
And this is why I didn’t rate the book any higher because I lowkey think that the author didn’t know what the characters looked like?? Abby was first described with dark hair and then it changed to platinum blonde with purple in it?? And then it’s said that Abby is omnisexual but later says she is bisexual? And Owen was described with dark hair and then it became red hair? Owen ig i understand because time had passed yahyah.
Anyways Summer is that iconic crazy girl that thinks it’s okay to do illegal things. In another universe you sacrificed your friends to slenderman.
And Brynn is an icon, which is why I wish we got more of her and Abby because, power couple?
Anyway I would’ve ate this book up if it was longer, more details yk? More tension between the characters? Less like it seems relationships are forced just because you put to gay characters in a room doesn’t mean they’ll love each other. The tension was there with Abby and Brynn butttt the pining was missing
