I didn't like the end. It felt like an odd colour patch sewn on a new dress. I could have understood (not forgiven) her choice if she planned to publish a second book, but in my opinion the book worth plummeted because of it.

Tyler's death was the most emotional moment of the book, his choice of not being seen by Grey something complex that left a bad aftertaste in my mouth (I'm all for good endings) but understandable and even admirable. Not nice, but a good choice. The epilogue felt like the publisher compelled the author to write a "happy ending" for Tyler too, or something like that. Why would Iris chose to go back to him after he refused the first time? Why would he refuse to go back with the love of his life but would do so with Iris? I could have understood so if framed as giving him a second chance, but it felt like Iris lost all her character development in a moment

charmingly written. words spread past the page like mold and rot and flowers. derivative of stranger thing’s “the upside down.” semi surprising twist? sorta? easy to devour.
