I thought this book was ok i had major anxiety for really the whole book this was the most anxiety I’ve gotten from any book ever i came so close to dnf this i have this thing where i only like for the main characters to have sex together and be together so when she got kidnapped and they actually raped her i got extremely disappointed i was debating wether i wanted to rate this book a three stars or four stars but i settled for four i guess because the ending I definitely enjoyed haunting adeline over this one by a longgggg shot i did find myself enjoying some parts of this book i also did enjoy meeting sibby again ifykyk i also did like the writing of the book the author told allot of details in situations but not to much to the point where your annoyed but yeah overall i rated this book four stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Tough read. I thought the first book was dark but man getting through the first half of this one for me was hard. So much of it dragged for me which is probably great for someone who likes suspense. To me it began to feel like a survivor’s guide at some point. I loved that their relationship was more stable or consistent in this book though. I couldn’t leave off on a cliff hanger!

this book is so good. zade meadows. that’s it. zade meadows. he is so patient and so imperfectly perfect. i have never felt so much genuine anger while reading a book like i did while reading the first half and what addie had to go through. it’s a hard read but it’s good. i was frustrated with addie when she blamed zade and i was lowkey getting sick of the smut towards the end and i feel like this book was getting a little dragged on near the end probs bc of the smut. idk i felt like it could’ve ended sooner but i understand why it wasn’t but like they could’ve. either way it was an amazing read and i love it and zade meadows has me entire heart.
