I absolutely loved this book. It made me laugh, cry, hate and love. The second one is definitely way more darker then the first one which makes it more realistic. Nothing is just black or white, there's a variety of grey resembled in MMC, Zade, and other characters. 
I'm really grateful to the author for writing about this themes, even though it is hard to read sometimes. We all know that is a lot of bad things happening in the world, yet we pretend that it's not there to be able to sleep in peace and without fear. H.D. Carlton did a great work at combining unpleasant experiences and situations with psychologically messed up relationship. She got me as obsessed with the plot and the characters as Zade is obsessed with Addie...

I am not one to get triggered easily but I did have to skip some of pages in part 1 of this book. It is very descriptive so do read the trigger warnings. Overall I thought the book was brilliant one of my favorite series. The romance between Zade and Adeline is to die for.

3.0

"Meadows. Our last name is meadows, baby"  HAD ME FOLDING. However, some scenes and diaglonue had me cringing so bad- I was just waiting for this story to end. The pacing in the beginning was well, I felt like. It's when (imo) after Addie is saved the pacing felt rush.

I don't like Zade but I liked his romantic comments more in this book but he's still him. Addie deserves ALL peace. Everyone deserved what was coming to them 🙏

Also, I felt like addie and her mom's relationship never really developed?

but the event where her mom gets shot and her dad is PISSED about it is so... I don't know. I can see why it happened but with the state of their mother/daughter relationship, it felt dramatic for no reason. I understand why because it's still her mom but it just felt.. unprematured. Also, the audacity of her father was just b*tching at them literally THE PEOPLE WHO SAVED THEIR LIVES. Her father was annoying and needed to exit immediately.
 

Despite some of the dark themes and contents, there were scenes that cracked me up like the note from Rio.

I'm glad I'm done with this duology.
