4.0

Big improvement on the first book for me. The non-romance plot was more focused, the romance plot actually gave us reasons to root for Warner, or at the very least empathise with him (and it wasn't the dumb dog bit), and it didn't even have to make Adam into a bad guy to do it. Juliette figures out that love can't magically fix everything wrong with her life and that she is capable of being a complete person without needing Adam to be her emotional crutch. 

I will say that some of the writing gets a little bit cringey, but it's improved. We aren't subjected to classic lines like Shatter Me's "my dreams are bloody and bleeding and blood is bleeding".

A strong sequel to the first book. I liked that it wasn’t all smooth sailing and not everybody instantly loves Juliet which is a refreshing change from the genre. Adam and Warner are two sides of the same coin and so interesting to see the push and pull between them and Juliet. I like that Warner isn’t completely redeemed in this book because he’s got so many twisted layers & im still trying to puzzle him out. I hope the next book doesn’t make Juliet do a complete 180 though and lose all her friends!

Jesus H Christ. I genuinely don't understand how this and the first book were written by the same person. Like the first book was fine but THIS. Lordy. I adored this book. Warner is my favorite as resident lover and pyscho but, Kenji is a verryyy close second as probably one of the only people who doesn't handle Juliette with kid gloves. I am so excited for the next books for real.

tbh I don't have any strong feelings toward this book. It was good but it wasn't my new favourite. However I'm interested as to how the ending will lead into the third book. especially with Warner ;)
