thank you netgalley for giving me an arc of this book!

the premise of this story was really interesting to me from the beginning, and i was so excited to start it. and I was right! i was very hooked from the very first page, and enjoyed how we were thrown right in the middle of the chaos. travis was also extremely relatable, his character hit close to home for me. 
the first half of this book is so very good, the plot is pretty fast-paced, has really decent writing, and is very gripping. 

however, the second half of the book unfortunately loses me, i was very disappointed by what i was reading as again, the first half i enjoyed. the writing and interesting quotes lack and feels very cheap, the pacing was starting to get a little wonky, and i didn’t like how rushed the reunion between travis and jacob felt. it just felt so forced which is unfortunate as their story and chemistry was really hitting hard at the beginning. why did i feel their love for each other was stronger when they were apart rather when they when they were together and being loved by each other?
