Caro's right. She should be scared. Everything's out of her hands now. All the things coming Ava's way they won't be able to control, things she won't always ask for because she's a girl. She doesn't even know how hard it's going to be yet, but she will, because all girls find out. And I know it's going to be hard for Ava in ways I've never had or will ever have to experience and I want to apologize to her now, before she finds out, like I wish someone had to me. Because maybe it would be better if we all got apologized to first. Maybe it would hurt less, expecting to be hurt.

there's always something so raw to the way courtney summers writes and it's no different here. i read some negative reviews and most criticize romy for being unlikeable but that's the thing with almost all of summers protagonists... they're traumatized and hurt and real.. and i think it's important to see what that kind of hurt does to young girls and how hard and distrustful and mean like a bad dog it can make you

sorry but not i feel fucking crazy right now i cant be subjective in anyway about this book because while i KNOW its not perfect and i can easily see why other people would dislike it but i dont care it worked so perfectly for MEEEE i LOVE unreliable narrators i love unsolved mysteries (and i have my thoughts about that one hehe) i love cassie my wife i love detective novels i love characters who spiral from Just A Guy to someone put a bullet in my fucking brain this guy stinks jesus what an idiot Guy. I LOVED THIS it was all i thought about when i wasnt reading it and the length didnt bother me at all i genuinely loved the meandering descriptions and thought tangents. a new favorite easilyyy
