Magnolia Parks by Jessa Hastings

This book took me by surprise! 💔It isn't your typical romance—it's a deep dive into a toxic relationship between Magnolia and BJ. Their dysfunction is palpable, and the narrative's stream of consciousness style adds an intriguing layer. While I devoured most of it, the ending felt a bit drawn out. Still, a compelling read that challenges the idea of love. 4/5 stars! 📖💔
