Cecilia annoyed me in the first book and she didn’t get better in this one. I still wanted to shake her and force her into therapy because WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU GIRL!? It’s like when you tell a kid to not touch the stove because it’s hot and they run and touch the stove then are surprised that it’s hot. WHY DO YOU NOT LISTEN CECILIA!? I know Frenchmen are hot but cmon! I was a bit thrown when we jumped in time and was a bit confused and also concerned that Cecilia was still acting like a 19 year old but pretending to be an adult. Also, can we just have one relationship between same aged people? All of the relationships in this book have over like a 10 year age gap and the relationships start at 18-19. Maybe it’s because of what I do for a living but that just bothers me a bit. 

But the spice was spicing 🌶️
