preecious's review against another edition

I'm sorry but writing seems so sloppy as if it was written by an 11 year old. I mostly skimmed through, that's why i got so far in pages. dark stuff is definitely there but the way it is presented doesn't do it justice. especially the stalker's pov feels so forced, not natural. I mean I love clichés but not when it is written so poorly

I really had to ignore the reviews on this book and keep others from deterring me from reading and reserve my own opinion while reading. This is not a typical romance, and it gave me more horror/thriller/mystery vibes which I loved. I’m still conflicted on Zade and Addie together and about events that occurred, but nonetheless I loved this book. And whew the last couple chapters?! Book 2 me please! But seriously, I recommend this for anyone who can take others opinions with a grain of salt and accept that their opinion is the only one that matters. I’m glad I took the leap and read this!
