it just feels like she is monetizing off the weird success it ends with us got on booktok, and it definitely reads like a cash grab as well. i don’t get why this book had to exist.go read those instead literally nobody is making you read this lmao. Like if you can’t handle seeing a one star review or acknowledging that people have different opinions, then don’t read one star reviews! there are thousands of five star ones you can read. that’s why this is a book reviewing site. minor spoilers will be included, but read it anyway as a warning not to read this book.Įdit: for those of you in my comments going “if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say it at all!”: we’re allowed to critically consume literature? i’m allowed to write a glowing review of one book and a critical review of another. I swore i’d never read another coho book, but it ends with us was the only one i could somewhat stomach so i decided to read it starts with us to see how it was.
