I love this series!
I absolutely love these characters and the storyline of this series. It’s honest and raw with emotions. Waylynn (FMC) is so unbelievably strong, even in her weakest moments. She has learned to trust her gut, even when others think she is crazy. Memphis, Ozwald, and Bates (MMC) are drawn to her like moths to a flame. But personal mistrusts and outside forces are always trying to get in the way. It ends at another…Noooo moment that has my heart aching. I’m so hooked into this series, and truly can not wait to see where this story goes next. CW/18+

This book was absolutely amazing! I loved how things are starting to come together. The characters and absolute devotion are exactly what I love! Great writing and character focus!

Overall Touching Oblivion was good, but not as good as I was hoping. I thought more would have happened & that we would get more info would into the voices, but this really only focused on solidifying her, Memphis & Oz’s relationship, while slowly adding Bates in.
Also, Way’s mom is such a twat

There is some sweetness to this story, but I'm having a hard time with Memphis' overbearing/controlling behaviour. It seems rather overdone and all I can think when I'm reading his commands/demands is that if I were Waylynn, I'd be telling him to fuck off, thank you very much. ✌️

2.5 out of 5 ☆’s.

I’m going to keep this review short and simple because — for the most part — the comments that I left on my review of ”Seeing Sound” (the previous novel in this series) apply to ”Touching Oblivion” as well…
ੈ✩‧₊˚
”Touching Oblivion” is a rather monotonous novel that I believe should’ve been combined with its predecessor, ”Seeing Sound”.
ੈ✩‧₊˚
I might give the next novel in the series a shot — since I do want to see what happens with Cordelia — but I’m not in much of a rush to read it…
