yeah it's gonna be a no from me dawgI'm down for a book about a taboo subject. [b:All the Ugly and Wonderful Things 26114135 All the Ugly and Wonderful Things Bryn Greenwood https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1500552983l/26114135.SY75.jpg 46061078] by Bryn Greenwood is one of my favorites. But this was NOT done well.The writing is cheesy & angsty and overly academic - I've never met two teenagers who speak like Lochan & Maya do. I felt like I was constantly being manipulated into thinking this relationship was okay. Lochan is obsessive and jealous and often violent. Maya read incredibly young to me, which just made the whole thing feel even weirder. Far too long with so much focus on mundane things - full pages describing waking up, making breakfast for their siblings, taking their siblings to school, being at school themselves, thinking about each other, picking up their siblings from school... I'm bored just writing this.I'm honestly having trouble expressing my thoughts because this was kind of a mess and there's so much I didn't like about it.
