Credence was overall a good story, as long as you are okay with the taboo aspect of it. The author does an amazing job of detailing what young love is like and how a young person navigates some very intense feelings and urges. At the end of the day, you can't deny a good happy ending.

I knew what it was going in but it still gave me the ick. Lots of grammar and weird word choice issues.
