Well, I can’t believe I didn’t find Bj and Magnolia completely annoying. They still were, but they matured a lot compared to their first book. 

This book was still really tiring with all the will they won’t they. 600 pages of them saying they loved each other but then doing everything by being together. And the ending. Do not talk to me.

Spoiler ahead.
What the fuck do you mean Bridget is dead. She is literally the only person I fully loved (apart from Taura) and now she is gone. And the fact that she died thinking Magnolia wasn’t going to make her maid of honor. Stop it right now.

 I also think it’s pretty obvious that the whole car crash were Julian’s rivals or whatever. And I’m really curious to learn what happened with Daisy and Christian at the end.

But seriously, how in the world am I meant to read a magnolia parks book without Bridget in it.

I found myself spacing out every once in a while in this one, but I think that is on me, not the book. This was as drama filled as always, and I loved every second of it! Just when you think Magnolia & BJ are getting their lives together, something happens

Now that I know the characters and their individual developments, this book rocked me. This whole series is like a soap opera mixed with Gossip Girls, and it keeps getting better. 

The only reason I’m not giving it five stars is because I would’ve loved to hear perspectives other than BJ and Magnolia, but I guess that’s not the point. 

December 3rd will never be the same for me.

First the baby and the tree absolutely sent me, then the fact that Julian was actually falling in love with her but knew she’d never not love BJ, then the car accident (which I KNOW was not an accident and it was definitely a hit to hurt magnolia), then HER SISTER are you kidding me, I’m wrecked Bridget was one of my favorites and I think she might have got poisoned and the worst part about it is I guarantee it was supposed to be magnolia that died and not Bridget.
