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.
