2.0

the writing in wrecked is noticeably better than in it's predecessors imo. the romance didn't click with me so it was probably my least favourite aspect of the book but i liked the characterisation and i cared so much more about them than i did the lead characters of the last 2 books. in general, elena and jax had more depth and better character development. this book isn't much less corny than the last two but i actually didn't hate it as much as i was expecting to. don't get me wrong, there was still a lot of flaws (elena's parents' murder, for one - i didn't catch a single explanation for why they were shot by gang members/drug dealers in their own home) but it was a better read than i was expecting.
