Ali Hazelwood slapped again.
I loved Rue, the spice, the friendship shenanigans and ice, ice baby (not literally pls).
The fact that there is so much art work online about the characters made me love them more, as I do not have the privilege to have a movie in my head like some of y'all. Like I'm obsessed by that one ice skating illustration featured in the Afterlight edition 😍. I do not have it since I'm not made of money, but the Instagram version does it just fine.
Rue is my queen, I liked her way more than Eli, I guess that's just me being bisexual though.
I only liked Eli because of his obsession with Rue (relatable) and his skills in bed, but I don't find him attractive in his looks nor in his personality.
I started to read for the cover and the author and stayed for Rue (and the author).
