I would have said at least a 3.25 if it did not have an SA scene, so that is the only thing that let it get more than a 0. I was not expecting it it literally came out of nowhere and was the only explicit scene in the whole book. 


Crying score: no.

3 out of 5 ☆’s.

”I'm playing to win, Oli. This is one hand I refuse to lose.”

ੈ✩‧₊˚

I have heard many many things about ”Broken Bonds” within the past year & I am so excited to be beginning this journey! :)

I want to start off by saying that I adore the premise of this novel — it’s very original + interesting!

While the characters are also intriguing — I can’t wait to delve deeper into their personalities — there were times where they came across as being a bit juvenile? I wish there was better communication amongst all of the characters & not an absurd amount of mentions about things that Oli could never even think to share with her bonds (or the audience, for that matter).

ੈ✩‧₊˚

I am excited to continue the rest of the series & see how all of the relationships progress, though! ♡

This book kept me glued to my seat to finish reading it. I cannot wait to read the rest. I loved the characters besides Nox, i hated him. 
It is mysterious, adventurous, had so much going on to keep you hooked. Loved it!
