I'm surprised that I actually finished this. Lana was definitely annoying at times....and stupid. The fact that this was written in 2018 is clear through the writing cause some of it is definitely dated but it wasn't terrible. 

One thing that annoyed me was the
constant references to Lana's past relationship. We never find out what happened or why so what was the point in mentioning it? Also she's been moping about it and it's been over a year...
