hookerkitty's review against another edition
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
3.5
So now I feel like a deflated balloon. I was totally planning on giving this high stars and seek out more books by this author, but I’m afraid the ‘ending ruins the book’ would happen again. Such a bummer.
FYI content warnings: self harm starts on page 6, mental illness practically from the beginning, and the DV descriptions def made me anxious

Something else that really irritated me is that allll throughout the damn book, a certain event that happened five years previously is constantly brought up, in a way that keeps it a secret from the reader. Which, if it had been brought up just a couple times, would have been intriguing. But it's referenced so frequently and so cryptically that it just became obnoxious.
Once we get to the third act, things finally start coming together and paying off in a big way, but it was just too little, too late for me.
