doy 5 porque no ha habido beso.
Me encanta que Neil se este haciendo a la realidad de que tiene una familia y que todos se esten dando cuenta de que, efectivamente son familia. Que vayan conociendose y curandose juntos. Les quiero mucho, a todos y tengo ganas de que le den de hostias a riko y a su tio. 
La escena de accion de gracias es sin duda de las escenas mas duras que he leido, el punto de vista de Neil es aterrador y es asi como lo hace llegar. A pesar de que no me gusta como han querido llevar algunos temas, esa escena es muy cruda pero necesaria para el punto de la trama. 
Espero leer pronto a Andrew y al equipo de vuelta. 🖤

"But Neil Josten was a fox. Andrew called this home; Nicky called it family. Neil wasn't going to lose any of it." 

This is my favourite devastating read ever, tragic but a perfect set up for the 3rd. Noras writing is SIGNIFICANTLY better than in the first, and the building of found family relationships is sickeningly important to me; also the way that this book was seemingly dedicated to the other foxes, finding out their past, and how they've overcome obstacles was so so endearing to the whole team (including Wymack- the favourite found family father!!!!). Neil acting as the needed glue to finally bring the monsters and upperclassman together is genuinely so important to me. While sick at times, I love this book SO much.

ALSO THE HINTED ANDREIL,,,,,, ESP FROM WYMACK, so so excited for that


I Rated this book 4.5 stars when reading it the first 2 times.
 I Changed to 5 star upon 3rd read, while annotating and underlining.

  • My review is for all three books
  • The series is wonderful yet Sakavic found a way to ruin it every time it began to shine. From the unneeded
    sex
    scenes-which frankly felt forced and were included for the sake of fanservice, entire lulls in between rushed arcs, to the edgy, dramatic, and repetitive situations all come off as above average quality Wattpad mafia fanfics. That being said Sakavic still had me wanting to find out what happened to the characters despite my aversion to sport themed content normally. Finally, the ending felt entirely too rushed and highlighted how Sakavic uses trauma as a romance plot rather than the seriousness it should have been dealt with.
