Oh boy here we go. Welp. I do love a martyr-for-the-right-reasons.

Ooof. Thank goodness @Teru warned me. 🥰 That was rough. 😭😱🥺

But also you know my brain is like why would Luther bother with this, how would X think it'd work, why DID it work, why'd Y go alone, why there near ABCDE, what the ACTUAL HOW COULD THIS EVEN HAPPEN in the situation they're all in and I'M JUST. NOT. GETTING IT.

But okay. Okay. Breathing. Doesn't have to make sense.

I too would really like to know what’s up w Andrew’s sobriety and why he HAD to be on drugs all this time and how any of it makes any kind of court-ordered sense. What was the purpose and what’s changed enough that he can now come off them? This element is part of what’s just off enough to make the book feel kinda parallel universe.

Why do i know this trip to Nicky’s parents’ home is going to be a disaster… 🫣

“Neil didn’t care about his teammates’ sexualities because it had nothing to do with his survival. “

Um. Okay. But…how about because it has nothing to do with anything and is no one’s bizniz?!

Renee: this person is gay

Neil: 🤯

Me: Wait aren’t all the guys in this and every book I read lgbt+? Why is this a surprise? 😂

WTF Why you gotta be pushy about finding a date or hookup for someone who has TOLD YOU HE HAS NO INTEREST??? Annoying AF.

Holding a grudge against the wrong person. 😡🤬🤯

“…nothing about him was safe enough to share.”

Excuse you but not sharing is downright dangerous bc you’re not allowing anyone to be prepared. This is TSTL territory. 😡

Though y’know what, boys, if you aren’t telling Andrew and everyone else everything so they can be prepared and at least TRY to protect themselves from what you KNOW is coming, you are, in fact, the assholes. 😡
