the most disappointing thing about this book is that the character who was supposed to be incredibly complex and layered, actually comes out as a shallow version of that character, so boring it’s not even interesting to unravel him. and i couldn’t get through the complete lack of chemistry between the characters

This book didn't quite meet my expectations. West has gone through so much and really needed to heal in his own way.

For that reason, I felt Jackson's method of helping West recover was a bit overbearing. For instance, he destroyed West's childhood home without allowing him the opportunity to process his feelings or make his own decisions regarding it. Don't even get me started on the proposal.


Overall, I am glad West eventually sought and got the treatment he needed.
