emotional tense fast-paced

• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No

1.75

i cannot in good conscience rate this higher considering all the bullshit nicholas was pulling in this. check trigger warnings too because they’re around every corner in this book

yeah i did cry at carly jo’s letter, wtf is that name about

 this is in third person following different characters, usually alex and katie which is great until fucking

KEVIN the ABUSIVE HUSBAND ALCOHOLIC COP

’s POV gets just far much space on the page. i heard a little too much of the ramblings of a horrifying man. the end of the book flies by because it’s fucking intense

just waiting for kevin to find her at the carnival or whatever

the switching POVs/ narrative focus or whatever made it a quick read, but i’ll never return to this book
also WHY was alex

an EX COP

randomly, ick
