i’m at a loss for words. this book was so heart-breaking, funny & sweet at times. both characters were fleshed out, and had their own struggles. it was an extremely slow “burn”, but it worked well. the cliffhanger had me screaming & im anxious to pick up the next book. i couldn’t stop thinking about this book when i wasn’t reading it. i do recommend that trigger warnings are checked.

♾️⭐️

Wow. I was completely blown away by book 1 in the Boys Of Tommen series. 100% worth the hype! For such a large book, it certainly did not feel that way. I read until I couldn’t keep my eyes open, napped for a couple of hours and then finished the book in the middle of the night. 

I was gripped completely from start to finish, so emotionally wrapped up in every character’s journey. There really isn’t a character I don’t feel invested in. Chloe Walsh writes characters who feel incredibly real. The emotions she brought out of me were intense. **Parts of Binding 13 are hard to read so I advise you to check trigger warnings before reading if that concerns you**

While this is only part 1 of Johnny and Shannon’s story, I already feel like they’re one of my all time favourite book couples. This is the slowest slow burn, and watching them form a deep connection, supporting one another as friends while they navigate their personal struggles is perfection. 

Needless to say, I’ve already picked up book 2. So long TBR list, I hardly knew you🤷🏻‍♀️

Thanks to @elisasreadingjournal for buddy reading with me, venting to you through this one was 
essential!😅
