3,5 ⭐️

This book happened to be the first one in the dreaded “reading my entire physical tbr” challenge. I finished it in under just two hours and overall liked it.

However, a few thing really irked me. This seems to be a theme in Jenny Han’s books, but the main character is so immature. She is sixteen years old and still calls herself “Belly”? I get that it a family nickname and sure her dad and brother may call her by that nickname even though she is sixteen, but introducing herself as “Hi I’m belly”????

Another thing that bugged me is that her whole personality is that she’s the only girl with three boys, she’s not one of the boys, she’s not allowed to be with them and she doesn’t want them to see her as a girl.
One of her biggest character traits throughout the book is “I’m going to tell mom on you!” For gods sake, grow the hell up. You’re sixteen and still tattling on your brother for literally anyyything??

AND THE THING WITH HER FRIEND? What the hell girlie?

Overall, it was a fine book, easy to read and didn’t bother me too much. I will continue the series, but probably only because I’m trying to read my entire tbr.
