4.0

Kiedy skończyłam tę książkę pomyślałam "Dlaczego to nie jest jak "Harry Potter"? Przecież wtedy byłoby to dużo łatwiej czytać" A potem się ucieszyłam z tego. Bo pod wieloma względami ta seria jest dla mnie jak "Harry Potter" (nie chodzi mi tu tylko o toxic autorki), kiedy miałam 10 lat. Jest jednak inna, dla innej grupy wiekowej. Jest dużo bardziej dramatyczna, emocjonalna. Absolutnie pokochałam tę książkę. Dlaczego więc nie dałam jej 5⭐️? Ponieważ ostatnie 200-300 stron mnie straumatyzowało i po prostu I can't get over it just yet. Pewnie jak nabiorę dystansu to to zmienię.

Part 1 of this book was riveting! Perfect amounts of jaw dropping moments. Part 2 was slower, but picked up at the end. Ending had me fuming (but in a way that’s having me pining for the next book)

Definitely a fun and engaging read, but prepare for a deluge of cringe moments. Also smut.

It has its moments where your jaw drops but also moments where you roll your eyes.
