5.0

First read of 2024!

Another year unintentionally starting off with reading the lowest rated book on my shelf. Unlike last year, this book was an unexpected 5 star read. 

Loved how much science and psychology was in the book. Really loved the academia aspect.

The characters in the book felt so real and human it hurt. The relationship dynamics were really well done, I felt all the emotions reading this book. I felt the grief, and the loss, the anger, uncertainty and anxiety, the disgust. So well done.

I get that it was important for the plot, but I really wish that there was less cheating in this book. Like babes I get it, you want to fuck your married supervisor, I don't want to fucking hear about it every other page. Literally fuck anyone else please. I don't care.
