Idk it was just kinda giving me the ick (the girl would say no I don't want this and the guy who was supposedly super against sexual assault would just kinda force her and be like 'you want this you just don't know it'.) Some people absolutely love this book I am not one of those people. I might pick it back up and finish it later but probably not.

I LOVED THIS BOOK!! 

omg at the beginning I wasn't as interested in it but I gave it a chance and OMG i'm glad I did. I just love Zade's and Adeline's growth and relationship, the characters and everything are just amazing!!!

THE CLIFFHANGER THO- wasn't expecting that and like excuse me?! I'm so excited to read hunting Adelineee!

This is genuinely the worst book I’ve ever read, and I’ve read MULTIPLE Colleen Hoover books.

I read Credence by Penelope Douglas earlier this year, and though that was a shocking read, I ate that book up like it was pork dumplings. I was looking for more books like Credence, and was thus recommended Haunting Adeline by H. D. Carlton.

I am never trusting BookTok ever again. I have given them second chances like a book trope and they disappoint me every time.

THIS IS NOT A ROMANCE BOOK AND SHOULD NEVER BE CONSIDERED ONE. It is a book about a man STALKING a woman and sexually assaulting her. The author essentially condoning Zade’s abuse towards Adeline by making her constantly second guess whether she consented to things, is just awful.

The actual writing is horrible and filled with the most bizarre metaphors and similes I’ve ever read.

The B plot about Adeline attempting to solve her great-grandmother’s murder WAS SO BORING, I had to skim it every time.
