It’s a very very very dark book. I skipped many of the chapters/paragraphs that had dark themes descriptions.

Read this book because a friend and tik tok. Had a hard time wanting to even pick up the book after starting it. Only stayed to find who killed grandma (Gigi). Also, really didn’t like the main characters but loved most of the side characters like Daya, Sibby, and Jay.

Love, love, love. Everyone tells me it's traumatizing, and it's not amazing but it's not even horrible! Although it is pretty dark so the trigger warnings would be good to read... I honestly love Zade and his dedication. Could he have approached the situation differently? Yes. But he did it so she wouldn't be petrified of him when she found out who he really was... it's cute I guess. He's cute. Too cute.
