Look, I read a ton of dark romance with very unhealthy relationships, and yet the level of delusion June faces on an hourly basis surpasses all of them. Really, I liked everyone except Avery and June. Avery was incredibly self centered and June was insane on a fundamental level.

⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️Random notes from my read: CAN BE CONSIDERED SPOILERY⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

* Interesting start. It’s kind of dumb she’s so focused on beau that she can’t do her job while her boss is right there, asking her over and over to do her job
* Already know Avery is a bad friend
* Dude, this girl needs to go masturbate or maybe see a sex therapist. She’s got issues if she can’t focus on literally anything but sexy thoughts of beau for 5 seconds
* “I want to be serious about my career and not out late partying”, then literally is at a club the next chapter. Sure, girl.
* This is an unhealthy obsession
* “Did Beau actually leave behind the woman in red to notice me? To care about me? To love me?”, woah this was a psychotic leap. All because he asked if a guy was bothering her at the club. This girl needs therapy
* You’re just sitting there in silence, lost in your fantasies of men fighting for your attention, while these guys keep asking you questions. You look like a huge weirdo
* Miller seemed nice
* Yeah, June, you do have a problem
* They just said he was moving into the building like 3 times and then you asked if he was?
* She’s the slowest thinker I’ve ever witnessed
* Girl can’t put cream and sugar in her coffee because beau is NEAR HER
* How are you panic freezing over text? At HI?!
* You joined to anonymously tell him someone at work is trying to steal his ideas, yet if the first two messages, you’re trying to think of flirty responses. What even?
* Cool, now we are responding like an 80 year old man
* There is way too much teenage angst for a text convo that should be short and to the point
* He doesn’t even know you’re female and you’re convinced he’s flirting with you. This is an unhealthy level of delusion
* Crap, this might reach my top spot for the most notes in one review. I’m only at 20%
* The most observant guy on the planet, and yet he’s never noticed your unhealthy obsession with him
* She listens to him shower
* Beau is secretly a conspiracy theorist and I love it. “Or maybe it IS LIKELY?”
* I wish the POV switches were every chapter instead of parts
* Something super frustrating, is that June doesn’t sound like an obnoxious tween in the chats with Beau. Not even a little. She’s charming and funny. Now, I get that anxiety can make you awkward in person, but her own thoughts are juvenile. It makes no sense
* She was going to exit the chat before he could read the goodbye message? Even though she knows leaving the chat deletes the records of it for good, so he wouldn’t be able to read it anyway?
* I’m disappointed he didn’t figure it out
* You’re the one who pulled her into a closet, bro
* Someone say “midnight messages”, ONE MORE TIME
* I’m calling it now Avery’s book will be with Henry. Is this even going to be a series? No idea, but if so….
* He did NOT just say that lol!
* Drunk June is not cute
* Avery is a freaking child
* The epilogue is the best. I’m so glad karma came for Seth and Bethany. Also, I’m still of the opinion that Avery’s book will be with Henry
* Yuuuuuup ““Henry is the last man on earth I’d marry.”. I smell foreshadowing
* Called it
