It’s controversial with all the topics it brings up but very Intense and intriguing. The jumps in time make it confusing at first but it’s great to see with time all the sides of the story. Very interesting to read a pov of a blind character. I wasn’t sure how it would end or make sense but it was good

Hi, hello -- this is EXTREMELY dark. Please check trigger warnings or ask a friend what to expect!

But there is so much healing that comes from darkness & so much light & goodness to be found in the midst. & this book shows that so well <3

Absolutely obsessed with Damon Torrance, the Horsemen, and all the girls of this series.

this book was definitely too long imo. i loved damon and winter's characters and i think they were well written but a lot of the content felt like filler to me (especially with the flashbacks they felt a little repetitive and redundant) so it felt like a drag getting through the middle of the book. the last chunk definitely kept my attention well but i don't know if it's enough for me to rate the book higher, since the book is so SO long. i don't think i would've minded the length much if there was more development in the present and i think the constant flashbacks worked against this story since i felt like i never got a chance to root for their relationship outside of their flashbacks. when i finished the book, i wasn't really sure why they liked each other (enough to warrant this being a romance novel) during the time the book was actually set but i found their individual characters lovable and interesting enough to root for them anyway, so i'd say it was a success overall!

this was a great book and perfect for the series summary of this book is below which spoils the book but this is only for people who forget what happens and want to continue the series BE AWARE

at the end damon and winter are together and damon’s kills his dad but all his money goes to his sister banks and damon has no money so he starts architecture, and he always doesn’t get arrested because the cops have someone protect him because ppl hated his dad also damon regrets everything he did and his mom touched him as a kid but his dad revels that it wasn’t his mom but a hooker and his real mom is rikas mom so they’re sibling and winters dad is still hiding and will is struggling a lot with drugs and drinking and damon is very protective of him cuz they had a very special connection

Read warning content. This was a harder one to read, darker than the first 2. Slower paced also. I considered stopping a few times but I was to intrigued so kept going despite darkness crossing boundaries and the slower pace.
