2.5 ☆ is purely for the writing alone. It was captivating and very well written. With that being said, I literally do not know what I just read. Maybe that was the intention of the author and I'm too dense to understand but I hate all the characters. Maybe it's the "woke" mindset or whatever but the women in this story all seem to have an underlining beliefs of men are superior and it's uncomfortable to read to say the least. Too bad the writing is totally my vibe tho.
