I saw a clip of this booktok and thought it was cute, and it was at the time.
But then I actually read the book.
It felt like a book straight out of Wattpad and I wouldn't be surprised if it was. I understand this book is made for the younger reader but even if I was ten years younger and read the book, I still wouldn't understand the appeal.
Especially with the lying, I hate someone who can easily lies, and that was the main theme of this book, the only reason I finished this book was for main male lead but even then after a certain point he was hardly in the book so I just read this book quickly to get it over with.
If you're a young person you'd love the romance and school aspect to it, everything else is up to you.
