⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 (3.5/5)

Okay listen… I get why Saving 6 exists. I really do. Joey’s story needed to be told, and I appreciate Chloe Walsh for diving deep into his pain, trauma, addiction, and everything that shaped him. The emotional depth was there. The backstory? Necessary. The intent? Solid.

BUT.

This book did not need to be this long. Like girl, be so serious—this could’ve been a novella and still hit just as hard. Half the time I felt like I was trapped in Joey’s mind, reliving every cigarette he lit, every thought he spiraled into, and every single breakdown in excruciating detail. It was like emotional déjà vu over and over again.

Yes, the writing was good. Yes, the heartbreak was real. But pacing?? Nonexistent. I found myself just wanting to skip ahead because I already knew what was coming, but it was taking 14 chapters to get there.

So yeah—3.5 stars from me. Necessary story, but WAY too drawn out.

Ha sido todo lo que esperaba y más. Sabía a lo que iba, pero no esperaba que me enganchara tanto. Una manera de escribir totalmente adictiva, unos personajes muy muy increíbles y con una profundidad todavía más increíble. Si los primeros libros nos hablan de una relación romántica desde el punto de vista de la inocencia y el miedo, Joey y Aoife son lo contrario, con un nivel de rabia y picardía que te hace entrar de cabeza en sus mentes.
En contra de lo que pensaba, la ambientación de los 2000' me ha gustado mucho.
Y si, este libro sí que me ha sacado alguna lagrimita, pero es que vaya carga emocional por dios.
Aunque la autora pone que está recomendado para mayores de 16 años, para mi gusto subiría a los 18. Seguimos hablando de temas muy complicados con los que no me siento cómoda recomendando a menores de edad.
