this was wild. the plot twists just kept on coming. i feel exhausted (in the best way). i also loved the way we got warner’s perspective too.

It’s gets pretty sad but it’s definitely worth reading to the end.

Such a good series, and incredible author.

This book though was more slow and boring at the start, leading up to a big dramatic ending. 

You will definitely want to read the books in order.

Oh Well

There was a bit more Warner, which was great. But mostely its just juliette doing something she shouldn’t be doing, and we all know it. And then just the collapsing bruding “you always lie to me” again and again. I’m tired of asylum Juliette and I’m tired of the most earth shattering sucking clif hangers at the end of the books. So yeah. That’s where we at. 
Mostly I think it was okay because the last one was great. But I hope it’ll be better now she is nolonger kidding herself.

It would be a wonderful book if only it didn't have all the unnecessary and unrealistic drama between Warner and Juliette.  SPOILERS!
There is only two things they fight about:

1) “oh, I don’t know you at all, it scares me, I barely know who you are.. “
you only been dating for like few month… not even a year! You can’t possibly know the person in such a short amount of time 🙄

2) “oh, you lied to me, I’m so mad at you, You didn't tell me I was adopted. We are breaking up”
🤦🏼‍♀️ He can’t possibly tell you everything you wish to know at such a short period of time.. A lot of things just haven't came up yet! Jesus! And the only one thing he ACTUALLY kept from you was just to protect you from unnecessary heartbreak.

This just ruined the book for me. The plot twist themselves were amazing and enough to give it 5 stars, but I felt myself rolling my eyes half of the book just because of  Warner's and Juliette's relationship.
