Ugh. Maybe it's because fantasy isn't for me. Maybe ya fantasy is just so much worse. Maybe this book just sucked??? It's a tragedy I read this truly

I really enjoyed this. I don't think there was truly enough intersectionality + look at this from a feminist lens because I'm sure there were pleanty of women involved in both sides, but you can't win em all. For what this was I thought it was a very interesting listen

It didn't stab me in the heart like I wanted it to, but it did still hit. I think there was a little bit of a pacing issue in the middle but I've honestly felt that way about all the hunger games books. I do love all the Easter eggs here though, Ik there are some haters about that but I loved it so

I enjoyed this but it definitely needed some editing and polishing as parts were very redundant. I loved hearing the author read the book! I just wish there was more reflection than repetition here

Good, enjoyable, not overly memorable to me

Somewhere between a 4-4.75 depending on the beginning or end. I loved Maddie, I loved her relationships with others, I've felt so many of her feelings before. This was beautiful, what an excellent debut. I'm very excited to read more from Jessica George!

Beverly sucks and this was way too long but god bless, I'm finally done

Thank god it's finally over.
I'm sorry maybe I'm the problem but genuinely truly you could pay me a million dollars gun to my head to give the full name of one of the women in here and k could not. She's talk about someone for like 1 page and then just never again? There were SO MANY PEOPLE.

Jennifer's body meets black swan. I hate the French but loved this book! Some pacing issues but overall an excellent debut! I'm very excited to read the next

This hit every single one of my heartstrings and I'm on the verge of tears. Beautiful and perfect in every way.

Def some pacing issues, y'all know I hate a third act breakup. Spicy scenes were NOT IT. Also idk why but the piggyback ride thing gave me a huge ick oops. There was no real conflict/plot here honestly and I wish there was, like the only real problem here was Aiden having commitment issues (that were never resolved????) don't get me wrong this was well worth the read, Grayson and Mateo were chef's kiss and I adored Maya! Overall i think it needed more fine tuning plot wise to be truly good

For a second at the beginning I was like oh this is a little woo woo (and some is) but it's great food for thought

Oh this was SO good! Though for a book titled the “third Gilmore girl” there wasn't a ton about Gilmore girls but don't get me wrong all the other parts were excellent. (4 stars bc I had to deduct one for the praise of woody allen)

Sorry but as a fellow autistic person, rose was annoying.
Did not know this was “ya” but it makes sense now. I wanted so much more of the camp, and it just wasn't there (nor ~camp~ like bury your gays)
Just didn't hit for me, sorry

Probably a 3.5-3.75.
I'm surprised there wasn't more buzz about this. Very in the vein of Elin Hilderbrand (with less experience under the belt) it was enjoyable from start to finish.

This was so fun (ending pissed me off a little but oh well) I don't understand all the haters on here

I really don't know how to rate this or how I feel. Maybe I'd enjoy more if I watched one tree hill? But it wasn't bad? I can't explicitly say anything was bad, or maybe good?

Yall gotta be lying that you like this book fr,,, I don't get it at all

She did an excellent job don't get me wrong, but it's so so hard for me to give memoirs high stars when the person is so young. There didn't feel like there was level of healing and introspection necessary for a fully mature memoir here, it felt unfinished. I could never think to write a memoir right now in my life even though I've done so much because there's still so much to learn and there's so much growing to do. I think this would've been better in 15-20 years.

A masterpiece! amazing! Truly everything you could ever want in a book! Queeros was by far the scariest part of the book though

Quite a bit not really about Victoria secret in here but very interesting nonetheless, def not like a docudrama more like something you'd see on the history channel but I dig it

Things I learned from this book
1. I still don't like Ronda Rousey
2. I actually don't care about WWE at all (at least not reading full blown descriptions of matches)

3.5 rounded down - a few too many characters for my liking, by the end with the reveal I had literally forgot who the killer was in relation to the rest of the group, oops. Overall a good read though

4.25/5
This will be a hard contender to beat for book of the year I'm sure.

Got a little preachy idk maybe a little too much for me (I do b eating up reality tv nowadays but this didn't hit for me)
