A Charmed Life by Jenny B. Jones

2.0

Would be a good series if it weren’t for the homophobia and transphobia, Luke the love interest being controlling and abusive and the MC’s pushback to said abuse being the thing portrayed as wrong, the random religiousness and preaching that has nothing to do with anything, the fact that the adults never believe the MC for no other reason than the author couldn’t think of any other way to move the plot forward, the adults being self-obsessed egotistical awful parents yet that’s always brushed aside in favor of the MC parenting herself, and the message throughout the second and third parts of “you won’t be okay until you forgive your partner for cheating on you”. Also, how dare the author steal the name of a beloved children’s character as her pen name, just changing it slightly, only to write this garbage.
