I‘ve been dreading writing this review for about two weeks now, cause I just don‘t know how to put my feelings and love for this series into words and because I know that this review isn‘t going to show what a special place the entire series has in my heart.
I went into the book completely blindly. I randomly got it at the bookstore because I loved the cover and I‘ve heard amazing things about the series. Little did I know that it was going to break my heart.
I finished Binding 13 in under 24 hours. A 800 pages long book. I just couldn‘t stop reading. I‘ve never loved book characters more than these. Every single character was so perfect in their own way.
The 800 pages of the book were the perfect length (even though before starting this series I was wondering how a romance book could have so many pages) and the story didn‘t feel rushed at all. I loved that the dialogues were so long because that made the entire book so real and raw.
I wasn‘t prepared for the emotional impact that series was going to have on me! Please, please, please check the TWs!!! I didn‘t and luckily I don‘t really have triggers but I still cried so much for the characters, their trauma and everything they went through.
Also I‘ve never met a book boyfriend more perfect than Johnny. His love for Shannon and his patience with her 🥹 Their love was so pure 🫶🏻
After the worst cliffhanger I had to wait 3 days for Keeping 13 to be delivered. It was the worst. But Keeping 13 was just the perfect conclusion for Johnny‘s and Shannon‘s story. I loved how both characters developed so much and how Shannon thrived 🥹
I don‘t want to say too much because in my opinion it‘s always best to go into books blindly but I can only recommend this series.
Not only was it heartbreaking but there were so many funny and cute moments, too!!
Definitely one of my favorite books EVER

When I read books in a series there is usually one that stands out more than the other, but Chloe Walsh executes the two first books with no flaws. She has me at the edge of my seat as well as having a good laugh one moment and crying the next. Johnny and Shannon will now be my favorite couple of the year. Don't even get me started on the other characters because I can not wait to read about the rest of them.
