Daisy Haites: The Great Undoing by Jessa Hastings

5.0

I should have known going into Daisy Haites: The Great Undoing that this book would leave my heart in pieces when it ended 💔😭

Like the previous Daisy Haites book, The Great Undoing takes place at the same time as Magnolia Parks: The Long Way Home except that it's told in the POV of Daisy, Julian and Christian. In the end of Daisy Haites we know that:

1. Daisy wants a "normal life"
2. Daisy and Christian break up ☚ī¸
3. Julian has broken Daisy's rules and is going down a dark path.

I won't recall what happens in the book because *spoilers* but I will break down why I love these characters so much.

Daisy:
I've always been a Daisy girl - her fierceness, her bluntness, her love and loyalty are what make her so amazing in this series. I loved to see the character growth of Daisy in this book. She wants "normal," but her normal has always been wherever her brother is. Is she truly happy now...living with Tiller? Or is this the life she desperately thinks she wants. And at what cost? The cost of losing her brother, the cost of losing the love of her life? Daisy always breathes so much life into her character and it was hard reading some of these chapters. But also - really funny? lol I love her humor.
My favorite moments of Daisy are always those with Christian. These two are just meant to be. I won't accept anything else. And a Daisy + Magnolia friendship - I was lol'ing A LOT.

Christian:
This man and the way he loves Daisy 😮‍💨 Yes he was an idiot in the first Daisy Haites book but I loved him then and in this book I loved him even more 😍😍😍 I lived for the moments that he had with Daisy. But also his character was so much stronger and emotionally present in this book. I loved to see how far he's come from the last book.

Julian:
Okay first of all I am a Magnolia + BJ girlie - because their love is something unique and special. Yes they hurt each other and do all sorts of messed up things - but they've loved each other their whole lives. BUT seeing how untethered and how in love Julian was with Magnolia made my heart break for him. Like full on tears streaming down my face because ugh Julian đŸĨš He deserves to be loved and by someone who will love him as fiercely as he does them. But with him being who he is - how is that ever going to be possible....poor Julian.

This ending left me broken 😭. I need more more more books with these three characters. I am SO excited for Magnolia Parks Into the Dark and I just hope for some snippets of these three characters so it can hold me over until we get another book with them.

p.s. as always the audiobook of Daisy Haites: The Great Undoing was fantastic. This series has my favorite audiobook hands down.

I received a complimentary copy and audiobook from the publisher.
