If you've made it this far in the series, this book is more of the same. Is it good? No. Did I hate it? Also no. 🤷🏼‍♀️ There's a lotttttt of references to rape in this story as well, which doesn't seem necessary imo

I really liked it but I felt like it could’ve progressed more. We went through all of that in the book and it's like the ending took it back to square one.

Meh. Very slow,  plot becoming a bit jumbled and starting to lose momentum, poor/annoying decision-making by the MCs. The series skirts a fine line of creepiness when it comes to the relationship of the FMC/MMC, and I thought we were finally approaching a shift in the power dynamic towards the FMC, but not quite.
