it’s my favourite book from this series so far! (which is funny ‘cause I gave unravel me 5 stars. it’s just -0.5 because adam is such an annoying mf) i’m pleasantly surprise. i love kenji and warren and winston (<3). warren was so cute all through the book 😭 my poor man was suffering™ when J was nice to him 😭

“And we are quotation marks, inverted and upside down, clinging to one another at the end of this life sentence. Trapped by lives we did not choose. It’s time, I think, to break free.” Juliette has transformed so much over the course of three books and I am so proud of her. She’s come so far to finally be comfortable in her own skin. Kenji is unapologetically hilarious, he’s still my favorite character. It was nice (but still very sad) to see him finally open up about how he feels. Adam is at the very bottom of my list. While I so truly understand his hurt, that does not justify his actions and I will never see him the same. Unlike his *SPOILER ALERT* brother, Warner remains at the top of my list solidifying his position more and more. His love for Juliette warms my heart. I truly wished things ended differently for his *SPOILER ALERT* mother. Side note: I need someone to talk to me like Warner does when they’re about to do the dirty. I will say the ending over all felt underwhelming and too easy. It was all achieved so quickly. But I feel that the next book will quickly dampen that feeling. Overall, great read. Definitely recommend.

A PERFECT MIX OF COMEDY ROMANCE AND SUSPENSE. It was literally building for so long, especially Warner’s and Juliette’s relationship and it all payed off at the end!! I love Kenji so fucking much he adds so much life to these books and to the character’s lives, it wouldn’t be the same without him. Adam was such a dick tbh I never thought he could turn out this way. But seeing Warner caring for Juliette so deeply, saving her even if it meant he could never be with ger and that she would end up with another man??? That’s the kind of love we all wish to have. 🥲

I gave this book five stars because of how much I enjoyed it, not because it's necessarily groundbreaking. I am obsessed with all of the Warner scenes and the dynamics between the people involved. I did not put this book down, in middle school or now. I have reread this book multiple times over the years and will probably read it again.

I got so emotional when it turned out that not everybody died. Tho i had hopes that Omega Point hasn’t been completely destroyed it was sad to find it in ruins. And i love Juliette and Aaron so much in this part.
