Review of 'Social Intercourse' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
honestly almost DNFd this book right with the first chapter because beckett is that unlikeable and the language he uses is just so awful.
this book is like the parent trap if the protagonists were assholes and there was a bit of semi pseudo incest thrown in. it wasn’t fun and i didn’t particularly want anyone other than maybe jojo to have a happy ending.
the lengths that beckett and jax went to in order to get their parents back together were....gross. the plot itself was a little bit convoluted (and again at times gross) such as high school kids getting anal bleaching and brazilians (???) and this being totally cool and fun and beckett trying to lose his virginity on a grindr-esque app where low and behold he’s magically catfished by jax and it’s just sort of introduced out of nowhere and doesn’t really add anything at all to …

it has the bones of a story that could have been good, but it just really wasn’t
