This one did really drag on.

I definitely prefer Daisy's books and those POVs, so it does suck a bit that they go over the same timelines, because there are some sneaky spoilers in this book to what ends up happening. I really wonder if you switched the reading order to daisy before magnolia what would be lost or gained, as obviously the books were written and/or published in a certain order, but just interesting. Daisy and Magnolia obviously are NOT besties and so for them to exist in the same series "equally" with their loosely intertwined stories is very interesting. Excited to hop back into Daisy's POV soon :)
