The concept of the book was fine, unfortunately that’s about the only thing I liked. The MC was frustrating and very childish, which made her relationship with 30+ year old men uniquely disturbing. The book is marked as sci-fi, but there is very little that makes it such, except for at the very beginning. Overall this reads like a book a whiny pre-teen would write.
Moderate: Adult/minor relationship
