Okay the author knows Elena is terrible so I'm warming up to her a lot. The cutesy "dancing for the people" opening really threw off the intent of her character and makes it seem like she's supposed to be a Disney princess, I think that scene could have happened later

Also given how much goddamn description there is I still have no clue what either protagonist looks like. I barely know what her dad looks like and he was described. I just know he's big and scary and that's it

Okay imma need some confirmation that the author knows Elena is extremely unlikeable because if the author doesn't know she's awful I won't be able to enjoy this at all

Also there's an obscene amount of description to the point that my eyes keep glazing over but at the same time I'm struggling to actually visualize anything which happens a lot when the descriptions get too verbose

Ngl the dancing thing kinda weirds me out in a way I can't put my finger on. I thought when they said dancing at first they meant stripping which I actually could get behind but street dancing doesn't really vibe with me for some reason
