adventurous dark emotional mysterious reflective sad tense fast-paced

4.25

I really liked it, it was a bit fast paced compared to my normal reads, but it had a good balance of sex and actual plot and development. I'd say this book focused a lot more on the characters, and what made them the way they are than the first book "The Sweetest Oblivion" By Danielle Lori. Overall I enjoyed the character Gianna, she had a lot of good backstory, and it all made sense after the reveals. I also like Christian Allister's character because he also had a really good backstory, I just wish homeboy went to therapy's sooner in life. Lots of references to the first book, at some points the timeline matches up.
