I didn't love how this book was much more plugged into the influencer slang than the first book. I also thought that the MMC behavior was pretty baseline. I get that Sol was coming from a terrible place - I just didn't resonate with the "this man is so amazing because he listens to me" when that should be pretty table stakes. I also felt like the language around his autistic boys was educational in tone rather than us experiencing what their life was like throughout the book.

I did love the solidarity of friendship and family throughout the book, and I really appreciated how Sol handled everything with her daughters.
