Completely unexpected. I devoured this book!

With a title like 'They Hate Each Other', you can pretty much guess how the story starts. It's quite obvious Dylan and Jonah hate each other.
Initially it was hard to get a feel of who Dylan and Jonah are. They apparently have a history of being "archenemies", but it's kind of glazed over in the beginning and, for me, it was a challenge connecting to them.

BUT as the story progressed and I learned about Jonah's and Dylan's home life, the plot took a turn and I was invested. It was so much deeper than I ever anticipated. I mean, two bi high school guys decide to fake date...sounds pretty rom-com esque, right? Yeah, not so much. Both MCs deal with some pretty heavy topics and while the romance is quite present throughout, I wouldn't consider it the most important part of the story.

Going into this book, I definitely felt the YA vibes, but once I connected to both Dylan and Jonah, I was pleasantly surprised by how they handled their situations. Everything that happened felt like it needed to, nothing was conveniently placed just for the sake of the plot.

Overall, They Hate Each Other is a deep dive into two teenagers lives and how they come out of their situations happier and healthier. It's both heartwarming and heart wrenching.

I highly recommend giving this book a read if you love...
