Review of 'The Duff' on 'Goodreads'

"We were both pretty fucked up"

I really liked this book. I liked her. I most definitely liked him. I liked that she is the one who wants to have sex to forget stuff so she takes the initiative and not him. And I liked that Wesley was good and goofy and as fucked up as she was -and hot, let's not forget how hot he was. Because, like she says, that's reality and escape is impossible, so just embrace it.
