Fake It 'Til You Break It

It was ok! My second book by this author, but still an enjoyable read.

Kind of a slow burn, until about half way through when all the drama and angst starts to begin.
Definitely wasn't expecting all of that family drama with everyone.

I love that Nico pines for her for so long, it's very sweet. And honestly I don't think Demi deserves him.

But they're happy so I'm happy blah blah blah

Yeah idk... this book made me feel 90 years old in a million different ways.

Quite frankly I could barely read Demi's chapters, I was just in a perpetual state of confusion. I couldn't tell who was talking a lot of the time. It really did read like “stereotypical teenage girls” just babbling over one another. The entire time I was like: “is this one of those gen-z things i just don't understand? Do they just talk like this?” And then they would reference obscure movies from the 2010's and then I just felt stupid lol...


Then I got even more confused because the sentences constantly left out a reference to a subject, or made references to things that just didn't work. They weren't even important sentence, which made it worse. I felt like I couldn't read a single line with out being like “who/what tf are we talking about??”

For example:

Long, dirty blonde but not quite brown hair, almond-shaped eyes the same shade of green, a deep, ripe lime-like color.

Tbh I probably should've been able to get this one, but I'm still mad about it cause I spent too long thinking about it. Like eyes the same shade of green as what..as each other? Like her eyes match? Thats cool I guess...

And

“is she saying he's out of my league or I'm far from his?”

Aren't these the same thing?? He's out of your league, or better than you, in other words you're far from his league??? Hello?? This ones not my fault.



All in alI, turned 26 and apparently I'm ready to be put in a home cause i just couldn't with this one.

It's like ‘
