“Did you wake up today and decide to transform my life into hell?” “Don’t be silly.” I play with my straw. “I wake up every day with those thoughts.”
I'd be lying if I said I didn't immediately get my hands on this book as soon as it was out in KU lol! Eli & Ava have been one of my most anticipated couples and it feels so surreal that I've already finished their book after years of waiting. Eli was like a mix of both Aiden & Elsa and I loved that! In the beginning, I was struggling to like him tbh but buy the end, his devotion towards Ava totally won me over! Ava was my favorite princess, I loved her the most out of all the girls from this series, my heart hurt for her. She was so much more than just a bubbly, social and mouthy girl as the world saw her. Eli understood her very well and he tried so hard to refute his feelings but Ava challenged him at all turns. They became each other's obsession and while I loved their hate filled banters, I loved their soft moments even more than that because seeing them be so cute towards each other made me melt into a puddle! In addition to all this, the added humor with the OG group chat was top notch and I loved how Cole's POV was integrated too. I just wish Elsa or Silver had their own pov's too though. Also, I loved the ending and the epilogues. Seeing all the couples get their own HEA's was so heartwarming. Especially Jer & Cecy and Ari & Remi's crumbs were so damn exciting!
“Why? Why can’t you see me, Eli?” I stare at her glittering eyes that resemble a whirling storm. “I do see you. More than anything or anyone.”
This book was everything and more than what I was expecting. The mystery was getting real thick and when everything finally unfolded, I was shocked. By this time, I know that I should always expect the unexpected from Rina's books because I've been unable to decipher any of the plot twists that her books have had so far. It makes me feel so sad to arrive at the end of the series because I just can't get enough of all the characters. They were all sources of my comfort. Although, Eli & Ava's book was the perfect way to end this series, I can't help but think that Remi & Ari should have their own book in this series too. It doesn't make sense for them to not have one when they're the kids of literal main characters. Still, I'll hold onto the hope that one day, they might get their own book. I don't want to spoil anything else, but I can definitely say that this book will make you love all the characters!
