3.0

this is such a big improvement from the first 3 books. it helped that we didn’t meet the fmc in the earlier books & she wasn’t hinted at before we got to this book bc that usually takes a lot of the fun out for me with interconnected standalones - i hate anything being spoiled and it feels like one big spoiler. we saw a lot of santiago before redeemed so we can really appreciate the change in him in a way that would be harder for us to conceptualise had we not known him 3 books ago!

also this is probably a me issue but the message of this book felt very “yeah life sucks but stop acknowledging how much it sucks and get over it already” and i hate that in otherwise lighthearted books i didn’t come here for a lecture😭

Meh, after the last book, Redeemed has something missing. Maybe it is just too predictable, or maybe it’s just a lame way to end an otherwise enjoyable series.

This series is incredible. I highly recommend this read, but it’s my advice to read the books in order. Start with Throttled, then Collided, then Wrecked, then Redeemed. I wasn’t expecting to love this book as much as I did. Without spoiling, I will say that my father has the exact same disability as a character in this book so I was nervous. But it was handled with great care, and this book surprisingly became by favorite of the series (closely followed by Collided). The grumpy/sunshine trope is executed great here, and I’m sad the series has come to an end (though I did read we might be getting a 2nd generation series!)
