this book is nothing like i’ve read. it’s really dark and i know it’s only going to get darker in the next two books and im lowkey scared but im so ready. 

neil. i just want to give him a big hug. he deserves nothing but happiness. i love his character so so much. after what he went through, he’s seriously so strong. he’s so unintentionally funny though. idk if nora wrote meant for him to be funny but he had me chuckling to myself. i’m already dreading reading the pain he’s going to go through the next two books bc there’s no way he won’t with his background. but i’m also so curious to see how the rest of the series plays out. 

andrew is such an interesting character. like i’ve never met a character as unhinged as him and i’m so curious about his backstory and why he turned out the way he is. i’m very intrigued by him. is it bad if i say i love his character despite the way he acts. possessiveness over kevin and neil is so cute in a twisted heartwarming way.

i love the found family that is forming already with the foxes. matt and dan being so protective of neil and looking out for him is so heartwarming like its everything neil needs. wymack slowly becoming a fatherly figure for neil is going to be so sweet seeing it unravel. 

also neil fr eating everyone up with his comebacks like HELLO WHAT A KING! and that match had me on the edge of my seat. that club scene though… i don’t even wanna think about it. the interview too omg i gasped so hard. and the ending??? 

i’m curious to see how neil, kevin and riko’s relationship will go down. relationship is a very loose word. but i already hate riko.

anyway i loved this book. i didn’t expect it to be so dark and angsty but its so good and addicting?? it’s nothing like what i’ve read before but the genre isn’t something i’m new to. it hard to explain like this series is so much more. i already know this series will live in my head rent free after i’m done with it. i’m so excited.
