It Hurts Me
by Penelope Sky
Listen, when I told you that Theo was going to be MY man, I wasn’t kidding. I LOVED the complexity between Theo’s and Astrid’s relationship. Can you imagine your spouse comes to you asking for an open marriage?! Well, that’s what happened here with Astrid, and omg, I felt AWFUL for her. I think Penelope did a good job of showing the toll that kind of relationship can take on someone who isn’t meant for that. You can see how much Astrid struggles with this arrangement. She almost feels like she isn’t good enough for Bolton, her husband, even though she tries her best to be the absolute perfect wife. You can see the impact the arrangement has on her mentally.
I also can’t pinpoint what exactly about Theo pulls me towards him, but it’s just something about him.. his attitude.. the way he acts with/around Astrid. It’s the whole man to be honest, he just oozes so much sexiness, I love it!! Although, I’m not sure how I feel about Bolton. I don’t necessarily hate the guy.. it does seem like he loves Astrid but is struggling with the concept of monogamy. I just can’t really say he’s the “bad guy” in this book.. although, he definitely ain’t the pitch perfect husband or man.. so there’s that.
I’m so excited to see what happens between Theo and Astrid in the next book. This story ended in a mess and a mix of emotions, so it’ll be interesting to see the conflict between Theo and Astrid get resolved (if it does!).
