Cute

Really enjoyed this book! It did go on a bit long though, and there was a weird attitude about Drew, like s*x worker adjacent. There’s nothing wrong with s*x work and I don’t think there was any problem with the work Drew was doing. Also I feel like Jing Jing/Chloe had a slight touch of pick me girl energy. There’s just some comments she makes from time to time that were a bit ugh, she came off a little s/ut shame-y in certain areas and I do feel like initially she sort of did look down on Drew for his work. I liked the anti fat phobia from her though!!
