3.0

this was intense! if you want something angsty with a lot of wild turns, this book is a solid read

why not more stars? it's all jake's fault. he made some really questionable and unhinged choices that didn't sit right with me, especially when it came to his handling of conor's ptsd. 3 stars purely bc it was written well

MMC can help “heal” the FMC because he read extensively online about trauma therapy? Dude, you’re 19, 20 at most. You’re not a licensed anything to be administering any sort of therapy or guidance. (Especially whatever it is you’re doing here!!) And you had your own issues to work through which was never touched on. Just…ugh. What an entire miss.
