I think this is my longest review to date. 
This is my Mom's all-time favorite series. I grew up on the movies before I could read the books for myself. Side note: we used to listen to the soundtrack to clean on Saturdays, repeated for hours. She is obsessed. (I love her for it)
20 years later and here I am giving her favorite book 5 stars. I loved every second of this book. 
As a Christian, I don't read smut. *spoiler sentence* I really appreciate this series commitment to clean romance until the last book (I will be skipping wierd parts).  
That said, one of my favorite all time tropes is vampires (Admittedly, I think its because of growing up on the Twilight movies). 
Clean romance, Fluff, found family, vampires, superpowers
Yes, the book was better❤️
Ps. The audiobook narrator for Twilight is amazing! She put her all into it, especially all the sweet and action-packed parts~ 
Yes, I am immediately starting Midnight Sun! (Ik its the retelling not the sequel ssh😉🎉)

✨3.25/5✨
Quite honestly, this was a good book. It was written very well and the plot was indeed very interesting. However, although the characters do pique the readers' interest, there was just wayyyy too many problematic scenarios that were posited by the author. I couldn't simply dismiss them off with a wave of a hand.
