Harry sucked the entire book, and
My only satisfaction was knowing that Audrey dumps him in the end
. I feel like Harry was consistently horrible and i found it surprising when no one really cared. He smokes and drinks all the time, something i might have been able to ignore, but he’s also a raging narcissist who would only talk to Audrey about her looks. I found Audrey’s family dynamics interesting to read about but it kept getting interrupted by Harry this and Harry that. All that ranting aside it was a quick read and i really liked a lot of the side characters thus my rating.

I thought that this book was realistic for a fiction book. Audrey is a relatable character who accurately portrays what it is like to be a teenage girl. The ending made me happy. Too be honest, I didn’t like Harry from the start. Their relationship was really mid. Also I had a feeling he would cheat. I’m glad she didn’t get back together with him.
