After hearing people rave about this series on Twitter, I thought I was going to love it. Honestly, it was just okay. Nothing to scream to the rooftops about, but not necessarily bad either. However, I did like how they portrayed their addictions because it was very accurate. I think I will continue the series just to see what happens.

This really didn’t work for me and I’m sad reading all of the great reviews . . . ugh. I just had to force myself to keep picking this up and could barely make myself read much of it in one go. I was really skimming by the end to just get it done.

I just didn’t connect with the characters. It didn’t even bother me that they were such a toxic mess, that’s fine. But I just didn’t find myself rooting for their relationship at all. It felt like a lot of random one-shot scenes about characters without much of an overarching plot. That’s fine when I really connect with the characters, but this one just fell short for me. 

I also didn’t like all these random people conveniently swooping in to save the day for no reward in return. I called the one “twist” from a light year away because it just made absolutely no sense that it would be anything else.

I’m still open to giving these authors another go to see if I like a different title better. I don’t know. I really wanted to love this one and I wish I would’ve been hooked/emotionally invested like a lot of the other reviewers.

i liked the premise of this but wow this was a rough read. i had to skip over a lot because the writing was so repetitive. definitely reads like a wattpad book written by a teenager who has no idea what they’re talking about. the characters were all so annoying, and i feel like it romanticized toxic/abusive relationships in a way. there are much better books out there, skip this one.

The only reason I will continue the series because of Connor Cobalt. He will insult you and still make it sound nice and exotic. Man have me wrapped around his finger. Otherwise,Lily and Lo are two exhausting people to read about. I mean yes I am not against the journey but the two addicted people don't do for me. Can you imagine reading series because you are smitten with a side character(he gets his own book though)? I do very much.
