 Middle schoolers write more reasonable plots with fewer errors.

All of these characters are… the dumbest bitches I’ve ever experienced. Naomi has no brain in her useless fucking skull and Morgan? Well let’s watch the author fumble terribly with teenagers. I want all of them to be fed to a wood chipper toe first so I can listen to them die. Relating to any of these people requires you to eat lead paint chips by the handful.

And the twists! Are so stupid! And not even in a fun way! It’s tied up in the most asinine way. I’m embarrassed that I read this. Like I feel legitimate shame.

This author isn’t for me. I’m not sure who this author is for but like, bless their hearts. Must be hard to navigate life when your IQ is lower than the temperature of a room temperature cola.
