this was sooooo phenomenal. reading this, it truly feels/moves like a tv show in your head. i thought the first book was emotional.. no this one, BROKE ME! it was so painfully beautiful, I could cry just thinking abt it. shannon and johnny's love story is truly one for the books, it was amazing and even though, im so excited to start joey’s duet & clairegibsies book, im going to miss them so bad. the way they love each other is just so pure and so beautiful, ugh i love them so so much. overall, a great book- i cannot WAIT for joey’s books!! (i just know those are going to ruin me)

I loved both Binding 13 and Keeping 13, I think they are amazing books and well worth a read. I strongly advise anyone to read the triggers first, I went in blind and wasn't prepared for the heartbreaking and how disturbing it could sometimes be. 
Shannon and Johnny have to be one of my favorite book couples and this book was the perfect ending (for now 🤞🏾) to their story.

The only thing I would say is I felt the book was just too long. At times it seemed to be really slow with not much h ppening. I think the storyline could've been covered in only 2/3 of the book.

this book was absolutely incredible. i laughed so hard, i cried equally as hard. this book was heavy, but also such a journey. i was glued to this book, thinking about the characters at all times even when i wasn’t reading. check trigger warnings before reading this book.

very much aware that reading all of this in less than 12 hours is not normal behaviour...
i really enjoyed this, the found family is really shaping up now and i loved the journey i got taken on as a reader.
one thing i do really enjoy is gibsie and johnnys friendship they remind me of atyd james and sirisu (the blueprint iykyk)
