I find this particular kind of coming of age story told through a questionable dating history is usually a hit or a miss for me. This one was a miss for me, but if you like the genre, you’ll probably enjoy it. I think what sealed me not liking it is my inability to connect with Adelaide even though her emotions are an open wound on the page. I’m also not sure if I would’ve liked it better if I hadn’t read it as an audiobook. I’m not sure if the narrator or the prose gave Adelaide the overly earnest, cringey voice that I couldn’t get past. Nonetheless it’s well-written, has an interesting plot, and I imagine is relatable for many people. I’m just not one of them.
