After them barely communicating for several months, her drug addiction & suicide attempt, his enduring several random hate crimes, and the implosion of both of their academic careers, he decides to PROPOSE????? MARRIAGE??? fuck this book man im SICK

what just happened. what the fuck. the chemistry is in the negative but I’m supposed to swoon at this random ass romantic gesture? yawn

so she admits to being hooked on sleeping pills and instead of helping her wean off they just decide to get her more&-&/!/&/&/&/&/&/&/&/&/&

Genuinely think Effy and Preston enjoy being sad and unloved bc they twist themselves into it at the first opportunity

So one of them is pill popping and skipping class and the other is hallucinating and being hate-crimed in class… but they won’t talk about it. Unbearable, I swear they were better rivals than partners

I don’t like either of these narrators as much as I remember. There’s simultaneously so many new threads and so few things happening that aren’t re-treads of conflicts I thought the last book resolved. The first one had a snoozeful start so maybe Reid just isn’t good at openers…
