Every single character in this book sucks. They're all terrible people that I couldn't stand.

And the two main girls? Both are selfish, self-absorbed, arrogant and bitchy. They ruin every single life they touch and they don't even care. They're mean to everyone yet everyone continues to be their friend. One was murdered while the other is fawned over. No matter how much the MC hurts her friends, they won't let her go.

They pine after her like she's a fucking god and it's gross because she's abusive and cruel. She's no better than the "friend" she hates. They are all terrible people and none of them deserve a happy ending.

If all of them died or ended up destroyed at the end, it would have been a solid 3. But giving these terrible asshole characters a happy ending?? Nah, fam. This book annoyed me so much. There's not a single character I felt bad for. Not a single character I liked.

I could not care less what happened to any of them. They deserve it. But they don't deserve a happy ending.
