What I liked:

I LOVED seeing Lo's development as a person. He really is all about growing and becoming a better person for himself and for Lily. And I'm so glad he doesn't enable. And he makes it exponentially clear that he only has eyes for Lily. I love how in love he is with her.
I also liked seeing Lily's struggles with her addiciton and learning how she got it in the first place (and learning about everything with her mom and self esteem issued and anxiety); I'm so happy she's getting professional help and is willing to work through her addiciton to better herself
I love her sisterly friendship with Rose. And I just love how close they are.
I can't believe I'm saying this but I loved every bit of Rose and Connor that we got. I didn't really like them as individuals in the 1st book, but I can't help but love them as a couple

What I disliked:

The whole Ryke and Daisy stuff need to end ASAP! But it's pretty obvious they're gonna end up as a couple which I find blasphemous. This is the bare minimum but I at least hope they get together when she's 18 (still doesn't make it right though)
Ryke himself is such a douche to Lily. He can never give her a break and it irks me to my core cuz she's struggling too. He always feels like he knows best and doesn't seem to care who's feelings he hurts. He definitely got worse compared to how he was in the first book.
I hope we get more of a backstory on Daisy and why she is the way that she is because honestly her irresponsible behavior irks me. And her "unaliving" tendecies concern me. Also them describing her as "looking older" to negate the fact that she's 15 and Ryke is 22 is so unnerving.
The past perspective were cute but I really wish we got more moments between Lily and Lo that didn't revolve around sex all the time. I really wanted to see them be emotionally intimate. Also I don't think the pas perspectives really gave any new infor that we didn't know before.

Overall, this book was okay. I'm hopping to grow more connected to the characters cuz right now the only people that I really like are Lily and Rose (and maybe Lo).
