would it be insane of me to say i wish one of them would’ve died in the end? probably.


though i liked the story in general, especially how the relationship between archer and hadley developed, i found the setting and antagonists to be a litte flat. i wish we would’ve seen more of taylor (also, that‘s like the most basic name you could give the mc‘s best friend. seriously.) and gotten to know her more, as she was mentioned only a few times. considering she was hadley’s best friend, i would’ve expected her to play a bigger role, even though hadley was very caught up in the whole archer business. 
several of the characters felt flat and cliché and…well, exactly what you would expect from a wattpad story, which makes sense because this literally is one. i could see elements of that sometimes in the writing as well. still, i feel like other parts of the story partly made up for that. 
overall i enjoyed it, despite its clichés.

I'm not gonna lie, I forgot this was a wattpad book - I would say it's actually well written (for a wattpad book!) but the way they start dating is out of place like it would be in a mid wattpad fanfiction. I feel the tension, just not enough that they start dating and holding hands like he wasn't insulting her two seconds before. The ending is also rushed, "omg she is dead...or not, then nine years go by and they're happily married" in 100 words type of shit.
Oh, and as a design student, this cover will be in my nightmares.
