“I can love him, but I can’t depend on him to be my backbone. I can’t be my own person if I constantly require someone else to hold me together.” I couldn’t put this book down, read it all in a whole day. The plot is so addicting, like you just HAVE to know how the story continues. Kenji is my favorite character. We see a different, more serious side of him and start to wonder about his life before he met Juliette. We see more of Warner and his love for Juliette genuinely makes you root for him to be end game. Adam, sweet, Adam. He’s perfect, but there’s something about Warner who only has a soft spot for Juliette that makes him so more appealing. Also….we will NOT talk about the “Adam incident”. I threw my book at the wall. Anywho, read this book, read this series. You have too.

All three stars are for the Warner content. The rest was overly emotional, and Juliette, albeit upset good reasons, can be kind of insufferable in the beginning. The first half is slow, but once the plot actually starts it's a good read. It's another one to get through in order to get to the next books.

First book of the year?!?!
The book wasn't too bad honestly it had a great story, the writing was amazing etc but I found it INCREFIBALLY hard to read ahaha
I think it was really just because Juliette had her prioritys wrong and she was so like complainy and pitying her self too much! 
I mean they were going off to war and she ADMITTED that all she could think about was her bad love life like girl-
BUT OVERALL IT WASNT BAD AND IM EXCITED FOR THE NEXT!

I liked this soooo much more than the first book. It’s very easy to read but the excessive metaphors took some getting used to. The metaphors make it seem ALMOST like it’s trying (and failing) to be poetic to be honest. It’s definitely a page turner and the plot was good, to the point where i would read for less than an hour and already have read 100 pages (a lot for me). But it extremely lacks in world-building- why is there even an apocalypse? what is the apocalypse in this world? It mainly talks about what the government wants to do but not how it got to that point like girl tell me what’s going on please. Then I feel like I could get so much more into it because a lot other than the well fleshed out characters seemed to be left to imagination in terms of the universe they’re in. Overall I liked the character development, especially Warner’s and how Juliette finally realised she should stop feeling sorry for herself and do something about her situation to the point where she becomes even relatable (don’t worry girl, i would go for them both too).
