But once I got past that couple of chapters it became a very thrilling and emotional ride. I know Phoenix is very complicated and almost hateable to the extent. But as the book we know and I just couldn’t help but to slowly like that turn to love him.
And actually Lennon was very relatable and I wasn’t annoyed by any of her thought process. I’m also glad that we got dope perspective because I did like seeing the emotion in Phoenix.
I’m also glad that everything kind of sort of worked out I wish we had a longer epilogue. Like maybe a year down the line or something.
But I am in patiently waiting for the Skyler and Memphis book to come out. Because from them being side characters and me filling the angst from a side character.
Just means their book is gonna gut me, especially with how we know some of the activities and really messed up decisions they make about their lives. And I can’t wait to read every moment of it!

Lennon is also a plus-size female main character, which I love! There are body image issues, food issues, and long-standing insecurities and feelings about food and her body.
What I liked most about this book was how bittersweet their healing was. It felt very real and raw and emotional. Some books take enemies-to-lovers from a small spat to the moon-stars-and-everything-between. This one picks you up, pushes you down, extends a hand to you, and drags you across the pavement a little bit.
It took me a while to come around to this book. I just didn't think it was for me, but I was wrong. See? I can admit when I'm wrong. If you're an emotional reader like me, consider yourself warned. This one is going to hurt a little.
Happy Reading!
