As much as I loved the After series, I found this book quite slow, and only skimmed through it to just read more about their future together. I definitely would put this down as a novella, more so than a story.

It was like one really long epilogue...amidst read for anyone who has read the After series. All of the feels!

3/5🌶️

my last read for 2022. i dont know if this book deserves 5 stars but im giving it anyway because you know what i freaking love the after series so the last book deserved 5 freaking stars. i actually have no words to explain how much i love this series. and this book was the perfect ending to it all. the only thing i dont like is that we didnt get to see what hardin was thinking when he gave the sheets to his friends because when i first read the first book i was like “okay maybe he wasnt fully in love back then” but now that we know he was and that he stopped doing it just because of the bet it makes absolutely no sense for his character to do this. the other thing that i didnt really get is that well we already know that this is hardin’s book but why were there stuff he doesnt know? and stuff that hasn’t already happened when he published his book? anyway other than that i loved that we finally got to see hardin’s POV when he first met tess and when he started to fall in love because that’s what i’ve wanted ever sense i firstly started the series.

I will also never forget that this is the series that helped me get back into reading, so thank you Anna Todd for that <3

Al principio no me agrado la idea tener perspectivas de otros personajes pero fue muy interesante y cool leerlos. LeĂ­ cosas de los personajes que no me esperaba y me dejaron SHOOKED.

Fue muy impactante leer desde la perspectiva de Hardin, no me esperaba que el tipo tuviera esos pensamientos (los cuales de vez en cuando era abrumador lol).

Me hubiera gustado que el libro tuviera más capítulos de Hardin, no sé si consideren que son muchos o si están largos, pero para mí se me pasaron volando.

Tengo que confesar que estoy molesta conmigo misma por apenas leer BEFORE. Si hubiera sabido lo que me estaba perdiendo, lo hubiera leĂ­do hace mucho.
