I was bored by the first book. This book got worse.
In the first book the romance annoyed me, but at least the plot was cool. In this book their was no plot. I skimmed the last 2/3 of the book and didn't read most of the pages and it didnt matter. I got the gist of the story.
And the romance sucked. Cal and Lilac argued and dealt with the miscommunication trope when they were together and pined for each other when they weren't. I was honestly rooting for them to both fall in love with someone else because their relationship didn't do it for me.
The ending was just as terrible and unsatisfying as the rest of the book. Boring, cheap, and horribly un-romantic. Not for me.
