Such an emotional ride. A good chunk of this book is just PAIN but there are some lighthearted moments to get me through. I just wanted to hug everyone and let them be happy. I went from raging to crying to laughing to gasping. I can’t wait for the next one.

4.25

4.25 out of 5 ☆’s.

“It was time for the King and his army to fall. And the Vega Queens to rise.”

To quote The Script: “I’m still alive, but I’m barely breathing.”

If I’m being honest — I don’t know if I have enough emotional energy in me to continue the series…

(I will be starting ”Heartless Sky” soon regardless, though, because if I take a break now then I just know that I will never gather up the courage to read it…)

ੈ✩‧₊˚

Wish me luck! ♡
