Halfway through the story, I started skimming it because it's just gotten repetitive. Drew's stoic characterization isn't really that far-fetched from the "romance novel" characters Ashley was adamantly avoiding. 
 I was rolling my eyes over Drew's histrionics tbh and the whole Nietzsche fanboying was almost gag-inducing if I'm being totally honest. 
 Ashley's brother pushing her towards Drew just doesn't make sense to me. There was just not enough chemistry for me between them. 
 Only fun I've had reading this were the small bits involving Cletus.
