I was captivated from start to finish

 I’m a sucker for second chance, comfort and hurt book tropes and this book delivered

Although the book ended perfectly, I wished there were more of them (MCs) together at the end. You know, to feed my little obsession🙈.

It was so intense and I enjoyed every bit of if it.

This will probably be my favorite book of 2024.

This was perfection 
❤️❤️❤️

wow!

Great expectations is my all time favorite book, and this interpretation exceeded every expectation I had about it. Delicious, dark, sweet all of the things.
