gonna be mean but what the heck happened. this book had so much charm and potential — cassie’s speak had so much to say and then it got lost in the sauce of calling a church woman a slut? i lost the message the author was tryna say because want the dom thing supposed to be empowering? the last few chapters felt like very irritant rough drafts and everything felt so rush from tiffany to vine to dom to cass. shame

this book gonna get a half star rating from me because i’m a little confused to what it’s tryna say

like there was no need to point it out the mai’s was black as the narrator did but again wealth and social dynamics play a big role and the reason why this family gets to enjoy these privileges is due to their wealth but when they are called out on it it feels threatening to them and now here is there daughter realizing the global harm that has environmentally socially politically and economically

i like vinnie he’s cute and charming. i like the difficulty time the family is having with cassies meltdown. i sorta like the reasoning behind cassie’s meltdown it sorta draws on what i don’t like about this book. i sorta think being called cheap is not the insult this book makes it or to be and the reason it might feel this way is because it makes the narrator confront her privilege and she won’t.
