I knew Adena was dead, and I knew this book was just a novella about the life of Adena after Paedyn was selected for the godforsaken Trials up until Adena's death in the last of those horrendous things. But GOODNESS DID I NOT EXPECT TO HURT SO BAD. I'm so upset at the fact that Makoto will forever think that anyone who gets close to him DIES. UGH. LIKE???
SO FRICKING UPSETTING. anyways.
The only things stopping this from being a 5-star is the entire buildup to Adena and Makoto's relationship. I literally thought he hated her with so much adamancy that his being physically close and making comments about her beauty and how he's so obsessed with her got me scared in the beginning. Makoto also reminded me a lot of Kai; I felt he needed more character. Their banter was too familiar and too similar.
Anyways. Point being. I sobbed. AND THE WAY THE BOOK ENDED. HELLOO???
