Nevertheless, if I were the sort to write fanfiction for a book I have not and frankly do not care to ever read, the two of them would be endgame. They honestly seemed to be the only people with any kind of positive chemistry at all. And Harmony's kid keeps running to Gwen (despite thinking she's ugly) so I mean... this thing practically writes itself.

    I feel like the author thought of one scene with everyone in Vegas randomly talking and made an entire book leading up to it because she thought it was so good

    “Caucasian code of confidentiality.” I gagged looooool. Okay but I want to see this book floating around in the booktube world so the curse of exes and ohs never ends 😂. And you’re so wonderful for the booktuber shout outs! A queen.

    For some reason this reminds me a of my sister's first attempt to write a novel. My sister wrote a romance story in her teens, it was a story about a girl who finds out that her fiance was cheating on her with her sister (and the mom was real chill about it). When my mom read it she told my sister not to show it to her friends (for obvious reasons). Today my sister's writing has greatly improved (she sticks to the fantasy genre now).
