Definitely more character development and plot focused than the first book - hard to read at times with the content but overall really liked it

Despite how extremely dark this book is, it holds a place in my heart. The resilience Addie has and the portrayal of PTSD brought up emotions from my own past I wasn’t quite aware I was ready to face head on yet. A very healing read for me, which is probably not what I or anyone else would expect. Either way, I loved this book, and it’s getting a reread at some point so I can annotate the heck out of it.
I also would’ve rated 5 stars but I felt the conclusion was rushed.

This story is most definitely not for everyone. Oddly enough, I liked this one better than the first in the series. The content was graphic, dark (like really dark), and absolutely captivating. I understand what that saying means about watching a train wreck, it was so so tragic and I couldn’t stop. The story picks up and doesn’t stop. There were some scenes I could do without. READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS!!! I am a total fan of Z. I didn’t particularly get him or care for him in the first book, but I get it now. I get it soooo good.
