It’s 1:25 am but this book is too good and I can’t put it down 😭😭

“I needed not a lover’s caress but a friend to lean against. Unthinkingly I wrapped my soapy hands around my elbows and hugged my arms tightly to my chest. It was a pathetic imitation of a real embrace, but it was all I had.”

THERE ARE TEARS RUNNING DOWN MY FACE. POOR AVERY 😭

The rage I feel for Avery is literally turning my face red. I’m not even joking.

“I felt even more disquieted when, halfway through the meeting, I ventured to retrieve my water bottle from my bag. Ten pairs of eyes swung around to stare at it.”
YEAH I WOULD’VE KMS RIGHT THEN AND THERE.
