Reviews with content warning for Addiction - Things We Never Got Over

second read (april 2023): 5 stars
I loved this more upon a reread and needed to bump my rating up. Knox is drool worthy, especially if you love a possessive + touch-her-and-dïē alpha male. Plus this is SO funny! I cannot wait to read Nash’s book 😍

first read (august 2022): 4.5 stars

"There’s a difference between taking care of someone because you love them and taking care of someone because you want them to love you."

There was so much hype surrounding this book, so going in my hopes and expectations were pretty high. I am happy to say that I LOVED it! Although lengthy, this book packed so much into the story that I did not mind it one bit.

We have an underlying mystery plot line throughout the book, lots of humor, tons of heart & I am already itching for a reread so I can annotate tf out of my copy! Not to mention I need the next book in the series ASAP!

I’m obsessed with Lucian and I won’t rest until I get his story with Sloan,

This book is honestly so cute, it made me feel so happy. There were ups and downs, and they were typically well written. The only downside was it could be interpreted as insta~love, but it was written in a nice way so I’m happy .

i really loved the small town vibes of this book and thought that the characters were all written so in depth and well (for once the child didn’t sound and act like a 30 year old adult 😭). the romance was very entertaining and enjoyable, but i did think that knox went a bit too far sometimes when he was mad and that it moved a tiny bit quickly at the end. it also almost did seem like everything turned out almost too perfectly and a bit unrealistic, although i did enjoy seeing all of the characters happy.
