The Awakening as Told by the Boys by Caroline Peckham

This sucked. I hated reading it through their POV. Waiting to read it until after book six was a good idea but it made it so much harder. 

I didn’t appreciate re-reading those scenes, I think thats why it took me ages to get through. So I found myself brisk reading through all the POVS except Lance. Cause BLUELANCE all the way. 

This put me in a slight slump, but glad I didn’t force myself to just read through everything. Going to jump to the other novellas for a pick me up. God knows I need it.

this was SO much longer than it needed to be.

i skimmed through everything except the bluelance parts AND I AINT SORRY ABOUT IT bc orions povs cured something inside me that i didn’t even know was broken

being in orions mind >>

Feeding from this girl would be the eighth deadly sin, but fuck if I wanted to commit it.

That blue hair would look so fucking good wrapped around my fist.

She was the summer sun after the longest winter of my life

Loved this added perspective of the boys pov. So much more of the story makes sense now ... looking forward to continuing this series. 

Hard to tell who my favorites are now...

I adore the series and liked getting ia glimpse of what was happening for the boys. Some things I didn't love about this book, but I like the story enough to overlook it 😂
