There were things that I liked about this book, but there was SO MUCH that I disliked. I understand that Violet has a condition that makes her fragile, and I think that representation is awesome. I did struggle with the constant talk about how small and weak she is because I was really looking forward to a strong FMC. I think the writing is a little immature and it felt like a really elaborate divergent/hunger games self insert fanfic. I wish this new genre of "booktok" authors would stop trying to write YA books filled with smut.
