Um so I’m REELING. This was perfect in every way. Infinite stars!! I was worried because people kept saying it didn’t focus on Claire and gibsie enough and it only set up Lizzie’s story, but I thought it was amazing! I think it did set up some plot for Lizzie, but that was like maybe a quarter of the book. There was so much of Claire and gibsie and I loved it. I love gibsie with my whole heart. If you’re going to read this, PLEASE check trigger warnings. It goes into detail for some pretty devastating scenes, so be aware!! This book was truly incredible tho, and I have mixed feelings about Lizzie, so we’ll see where Releasing 10 takes us!
