I wanted to love this book so bad... But this one wasn't for me. Mind you, it's a page turner and it's mostly very well written. But that's all I liked about it.
As for what I didn't like...as I have no words left, let me leave with some of my notes (no spoilers):
- If I had a drink every time they mentioned Sienna is a freak in the first 15%, I'd be blackout drunk.
- We know...you said the exact same thing a few sentences ago.
- I feel like we're stuck in a loop here. I get that she's overthinking but do I have to overthink with her?
- You asked yourself the same question a chapter ago. Can I please get out of your overthinking loop?
- It's a really weird thing this book. On the one hand I can't stand it, on the other hand I can't keep but turning the pages.
- Make up your damn, woman!
- Oh come on, now I'm stuck in her overthinking loop.
- Ah, so, we're still calling it that. Great.
- Yes, getting a g*n will definitely solve the problem.
- Ok, so everybody is toxic in this story. Even the mom. Duly noted.
- You deserve a conversation? Deserve? After cheating on her three times? Are you out of your f*ck*ng mind?
- Ew.
- Ah yes, he is a good man. He hasn't cheated in years. And when he did cheat, he had the decency to do it before marriage. What a good good man, indeed. We need more of those.
- Asinine... I like that word. All of them are asinine... Can you say that?
- Ah yes, because you decide what a woman should do and when she should leave. A woman who is not your wife, mind you.
- It was disgusting the first time you said it, hence the "ew". You didn't need to repeat it.
- You, indeed, should not say that out loud. Reading it was enough.
- I'm asking myself the same question. Where is your dignity, indeed?
- I didn't need to know that.
- Such a nice thing to say to your best friend. Have they ever heard of inside thoughts?
- Now that's beautiful, exactly what I was looking for. Too bad it happens when I'm 70% into the story.
- Ok, now, I'm getting angry. Y'all have to stop with these f*ck*ng clichés. If as a woman you are attracted to another woman for years on end, you are not confused. We're going to have to stop with the cliché that bisexuals are confused.
- It's so sad because this IS truly heartbreaking. But they annoyed me so much I can't really feel anything for them.
Do with that what you want...
