I really wanted to like this book. I really wanted to. I've been wanting to read a book about a Jewish character and this one seemed really interesting. However, the main character was super terrible, super insensitive and I just really really couldn't do it. Sad 😭

Okay so the main character of this book is super insufferable. And I've already debating putting this down. I hoped multiple times that it would get better because I've heard this is an #ownvoices book, but after reading some reviews it just stays the same. I really really wanted to like this book, however. I just couldn't.

Robothugs It was the Abercrombie store that did it, wasn't it? 😝 8y
