There's definitely an air of privilege that makes it difficult to relate to. However, heartbreaks are universal–even though we all wish they weren't. The whole time I kept wondering, "Is this man a covert narcissist?" Then my suspicion was confirmed. smh

I bought my first E-reader today. I haven't been well and I was looking for something to keep my mind preoccupied as I recover. In excitement, I bought the first book on my screen. I have mixed feelings on it so far, but I'm curious to see where it goes.
