The book in general is still as great as always, but this thing with Ivy feels really forced, different from his interactions with Daphne.
I don't think Ivy likes him for him, but because Daphne also likes him and that made her obsessive with the idea of him, we can see that cause of the stalking, invading his privacy and etc.
Even after he told her he's with Daphne she didn't respect his choice and backed off, she's being pushy and I don't like that direction her personality is taking, across the story, her posture and mentality was not like this at all, minus the whole one-sided competition she has with Daphne.
And having more than one love interest doesn't match with what we know of him.
It could have worked if after the vote the direction the plot went were different, but now? I can't see Ivy involved.
