Reading this novel was like a rollercoaster. Sometimes I hated the characters but somehow they made up for it. I almost dnf'd it but I'm glad i didn't. I guess I just needed both Romeo and Dallas to grow as characters so they became bearable. I almost liked them too. Tbh Romeo really pissed me off but
then he built a library home for Dallas and that just sort of melted.
I just wish the author's didn't sometimes about women so crassly. This just made it very difficult for me actually like like the book. But it's okay as a palate cleaner.
