the secret of us hate is tired and played out

I'll never understand the hate for this album. Especially the comparison to Good Riddance. Good Riddance is good and all but The Secret of Us is more interesting in pretty much every way imo. The lyrics, the storytelling, the aesthetics, the vocals, and especially the production. The hate this album gets is so confusing to me because it's definitely my favorite thing Gracie has done so far.
