OH MY GOODNESS!!!!

So much happened in this book and it was so crazy but so good.
This whole series is like a rollercoaster but i do not care because its so entertaining

right i dont even know where to begin so lets go in character order

Juliette:
THE DEVELOPMENT , THE HEARTBREAK , THE REALISATION , THE INDEPENDENCE , THE STRENGTH.
SHE QUITE LITERALLY NEEDS NOTHING AND NOBODY!!!!
She just baffled me this whole book , i wasnt sure about her or her character in the first two books , BUT IN THIS. She found herself , she finnally did things for her and not other people.
UGH SHES JUST SO !!!
Her powers are literally unmatched its almost like theres TOO much , but yk i dont care because its juliette.
“I am Juliette Ferrars, and i will lead this nation. I challenge anyone who would stand against me”
SAY IT LOUDER FOR THOSE WHO CANT HEAR YOU!!!!
She was ON IT this book.
I cant even explain how much i was cheering for her in this book!!

Adam:
He needs to learn to shut his mouth.
I was optimistic okay.
He was nice to juliette in the first book , a little annoying in the second book. But i let it slide under the circumstances.
And at the begining of this book i felt the same , i understood why he didnt want to trust Warner because well , he was kinda the only one thinking clearing about the situation when you think about it outside of juliettes persepective. He wasnt being selfish he was scared and TRAUMATISED. Like do we not remember Warner from book one. So yeah i let it slide. UNTIL HE STARTED BRINGING HIS RELATION SHIP WITH JULIETTE INTO IT.
WHAT DOES HE MEAN THEY DIDNT ACTUALLY BREAK UP?? HES JUST EMBARRASSING HIMSELF AT THIS POINT PLEASE!!!!!
“You have no idea what it means to truly suffer”
“whats wrong with you? You dont do this. You dont act like this”
WHO DOES HE THINK HE IS TO TELL JULIETTE HOW SHE FEELS HOW SHE SHOULD LIVE. IF HE CAN SAY STUFF LIKE THIS HE CLEARLY MEVER LOVED HER.
“I was happier when i thought she was dead”
This is where i lost it with him.
blah blah blah blah blah
i guess hes alright now at the end but still i cant even think about him without feeling SO angry

Aaron:
IVE SEEN HIM. THE TIKTOK BOYFRIEND.
I did not like him in the first book , i tolerated him in the second.
And now im giggling at every interaction he has with Juliette.
Every SINGLE time a horrible character has a sad backstory it goes beyond just SAD. It becomse so disgustingly heartbreaking that i cant handle it anymore. And most of the time its to cancle out the bad stuff they do. BUT IT TURNS OUT WARNER ISNT EVEN BAD. SO HE HAS THIS GUTWRENTCHING BACKSTORY JUST BECAUSE????
Hes actually so unintentionally funny. ESPECIALLY WHEN HES SPEAKING TO JAMES LIKE HE IS BEGGING FRO SOMEBODY TO SAVE HIM.
I dont wven know how im gonna feel when james finds out theyre brothers because OH MY. My heart will be breaking and healing over and over and over.
But anyway. I feel like , and this is VERY controversial, Aaron Warner is not the best book boyfriend. I dont care. I will stand by this. I understand the appeal , of course i do. Like hello , weightlifting 315 pouds CASUALLY. I dont even like muscles but you have to sit there and admire that at least.
I would probably be as in love with him as everyone else IF there was not a better option than him already in the book.

KENJI:
HE IS IT!!
HE IS BETTER THAN AARON AND I DONT CARE!!!
his and juliettes friendship is everything to me. Like i admit i thought it came out of nowhere if im being honest but honestly?
I dont really care.
Everytime he is on the page i am laughing and smiling he is just my favourite
I think I have a blueprint when it comes to favourite chatacters ( Jesper Fahey , James Potter , Nikolai Lantsov ,ect)
he just is THAT character.
Funny , confident , bright but then with the little dash of heartbreaking trauma that makes you want to cry.
IM SORRY BUT THE WAY HE IS LOWKEY KINDA IN LOVE WITH AARON IS HILARIOUS TO ME
I just love him and i will never not love him idc if he goes and murders absoloutely everyone because he is kenji kishimoto and they all probs had it coming.

James:
He is actually so funny
I feel so bad for him tho WHY DID THEY HAVE TO GIVE A TEN YEAR OLD THIS MUCH TRAUMA.
The way he is so mad about his age aswell its so hilarious
Him constantly asking questions to Warner had me dying
I just love the way he doesnt care about what he says and and says it anway.
“i knew you werent dead” HES TOO MUCH

This one was just okay. It wasn’t my favourite out if the series and it took me way longer to actually finish the book. It wasn’t keeping me entertained or intrigued as much as Shatter me and Unravel me did.

I liked the relationship between Juliette and Aaron. Their romance had me again, swooning over the thought of them. I really liked them together but I did want to see more growth between the characters.

One major thing I would have loved to see was how she would take over the establishment and how they were going to deal with the aftermath. We got to see them take it all down but what about afterwards. I would’ve liked to see more in detail about that part of the book.

Another thing is that it was a bit more drama like than I would’ve wanted. I was hoping to see the drama diminish in this book but it was non stop complaining and fighting with each-other.

In general, it was a good read but not nearly as good as the other books.

Attiecības un personāži bija stāsta priekšplānā, kaujas un cīņas - fonā. Ja citreiz man tas būtu par iemeslu ielikt mazāk zvaigznes, tad šoreiz varoņu savastarpējās attiecības un asprātīgie dialogi visu glābj. Un, protams, aizliegtā lovīte.

Beidzās stāsts tā, ka pat neprasās lasīt nākamās daļas
