I AM NOT WELL!!

i loved this even more than book one. i didn’t think that was even possible but here we are.

veyka and arran’s relationship grew so much in this book and i loved it. their acceptance of each other through all of their faults was beautiful and raw and real. my heart is full watching them go from simple lust to falling in love. it felt authentic and seeing their internal battles was refreshing because you don’t typically get that from both perspectives.

also, miss emberly, how DARE YOU??!! this author definitely knows how to keep you on the edge of your seat. there wasn’t a single dull moment in this entire book and i was literally on the edge of my seat for the last like 50% of this.

the twists and turns this took made me question everything i thought i knew about these characters and this world. i didn’t predict anything and she is so good at giving you whiplash while reading (in the best way). 

grab the tissues and grab this book. you’ll thank me later.
