AJ is a teenager in this version but legally an adult so while iffy not technically anything wrong with it.
Rhi, to me, is both more and less likable in the book. And her actions make remotely more sense. Neither are better or worse, just different.

There's no doubt that Rhi is an unreliable narrator. We hear only her side and the snippets of what characters say to her.
I didn't realize this was a series getting into it and I probably won't be reading them since I thought the snippets were a 'jokey' Rhi gets published after all and it's her fictionalized exploits. But I guess it was real.
I might have been too generous with the rating but it was overall a fun and interesting enough read.
There is a character who has self-harm scars and threatens/attempts suicide throughout the book and is generally referred to as crazy
