second read (April 2023): 5 stars
I didn’t think I would cry so much upon a reread but the jokes on me bc I still sobbed so much!! This book. My heart.

Will I ever recover?? 😭😭😭❤️‍🩹

first read (July 2022): 5 stars
Exodus was really out here taking me through it!!

A true enemies to lovers story, the romance was simmering with delicious angst & I ate up every single bit of it! The spice that Kate serves up in this series = hottt af 🥵😮‍💨 (stay hydrated my friends)

I loved seeing Cecelia grow into her own by the end and realize her self worth. We stan a self realized Queen!👏🏼

My emotional state was "thoroughly unhinged" whilst reading this entire book, especially after the 50% mark. Miss Kate, I would like to have some words ma'am....

Anyways, somebody sedate me because I am a sobbing, blubbering, emotional shell of a human being after this one.

**shout out to KS for the mention of the iconic NEW MOON depression era because that is currently where I'm at, emotionally speaking.

The way this story was written is kind of choppy and confusing. The main character was also annoying and infuriating to me at times.

The second book is a lot different from the first but continue from the cliffhanger. It takes you on an emotional ride and had me clinching my jaw the whole time I was reading it.

“I know you…because you know me, and it’s here, in this place that we recognized we’ve known each other all along.” ❤️‍🩹

This FREAKING BOOK. I have emotional whiplash. I experienced ALL THE EMOTIONS. I hated them all and then I grieved for them all and then I freaking LOVED them all. I have loved so deeply and my heart just aches thinking about it. My dark cloud 🖤 😭😭😭

I was unprepared for how this book was going to impact me. I went into the series blind. And as much as this one broke my heart it also restored it.
