2.75
Not good enough for three but two feel a bit too little... 2.75 I think.
The writing style is pretty good and I liked the descriptions and the protagonist. But the plot was barely existing and the male characters were just... insipid. It would have benefitted from a stronger conflict, I think. The author tried to make it a conflict of "deciding between two men" but as a reader I felt pretty blasé about both so I didn't care for the resolution.
SPOILERS: Also the way that the both characters who posed any remote conflict died one after the other, almost in the same scene... it was not good. Not good at all. Yikes.

Minor: Death, Car accident, and Abortion
