Some of the growing was all at once and some took the entire book to really become clear. So much of what happened made sense from a toxic place, but the characters really did grow. It really fit her, but I was so grossed out at the same time. She then claimed it was a preference and she couldn’t blame someone for it. The MC seriously dated a biphobic lesbian, despite being bi. I had some issues with the book, but they mostly came down to the slow pacing and just how flawed everyone was. The last 25% or so is what carried this book and made me finish it. Then the big twist I did not see coming happened. I almost DNF at around 70% because I was just so bored with the same messiness over and over again. If it was not for someone else’s review that promised that the book picked up in the last third, I would not have kept reading. Everyone else was so flawed to the point I was having any issues seeing any good in them. Everyone else could go and I would be ok with it. I loved Andie’s mom and that was about it. The issue is I just didn’t like a single character that got a lot of page time. There are a ton of complex relationships, which I normally love. It is a lot of heartbreak and a lot of messy people. I at first thought this was going to be some fluffy, mild heartbreak sort of romance novel. I am a sucker for a blue book if my fiancé is to be believed, but I never listen to them about things when I should so I am going to say it wasn’t the cover that sucked me in and made me want this book.
