.5/5

16 pages in i started counting pop culture references; with 33 violations i'm dnf @ 48%.

Edit:
This God awful book literally won't get out of my brain right now. The writing was fucking terrible, if you couldn't guess from the need to add THAT many references. Colton and his friends suck ass. Why did everyone steal her fucking m&ms. If you have a playlist in the beginning of your book, please, do NOT include a song from it in almost every chapter. HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU HAVE TO MENTION AVENGERS. also, this book was published in 2023, but a lot of these references are 2019-2021ish? the playlist, it's very 2021ish too.

I was so excited to read this book too, but the poor excuse for writing is my 13th reason.
