Felt a little all over the place.

I also didn’t feel like Frances character was developed enough for me to feel emotionally affected when she died

I hate it in romance books where one person in the couple has zero friends and relies entirely on their romantic interest
“The Lesbian Bridgerton you didn't know you needed” I don’t think I needed this

Also, I definitely should’ve read the description

Friends to lovers to stepsisters and presumably in the sequel they will then marry each other‘s cousins. What the fuck?

I still pre ordered the sequel to hate read, so maybe I’m the problem
