Ghosts

you know when you crave writing but have no particular synopsis or plot so you just sit down and write and write and not care what you're writing about because it feels so good to just put something out there? this was how i felt throughout the 21% of the book. not only was it so fucking bland, but terrible. such weak writing style, so unnecessary bullshit. the main MC is so fucking judgmental, she has opinions from what pregnant women should or shouldnt have/do/say, to what her best friend (who btw literally has named her the godmother of her first born) does with her life. her friend wants to move to suburbs because it would be easier to raise children there, the main MC doesnt like it. one of her friends had an open relationship but later closed it due to no longer agreeing about sharing, doesnt sit well with the main MC. the love interest is late to their date, suddenlt he's trying to be quirky. not only that but the character was also racist. having an italian neighbor and representing him as rude and terrible to her (she asks him where is he from italy and he says fake name or smth)

this book had too many wh!te problems. i wish there was a warning beforehand that if you're poc then this is not for you. like people have far more serious issues than your guy responding to every single text of yours which by the way is NOT antique and we well most of us wish that was the case in real life

also this was supposed to be a buddy read. gah
