Second of all, bro maybe going through the bathroom is chill cause technically that’s one tell on hygiene or having a partner, but really? His bedroom? Like no respect? Privacy? In book or not that’s super weird honestly. Either ways, I did like the book up until like 40% when things started getting messy, really it felt just jumbled up after that point.

This book was like 90% the movie « The DUFF » except instead of two hot popular friends it’s one. I still ate it up and really enjoyed it, except for all the brand mentioning, I really don’t like that, at some point it felt like an ad. Liz was very .. annoying but then again they are young, wes was adorable.
