strongly disliked this book but i am happy for readers who find escapism within this as well as for the author who clearly values this book based on their authors note.

i am not the target audience tho cuz i thought both of the main characters were bland and i just didn’t care also as a person who studies a STEM field and wants to go to grad school this scared me lol
