 Okay so I just finished this book, and oh my God. I feel like I have a lot in common with Ryen. We’re both kind of social outcasts who changed so people would like us better, when in reality, all it really did was hurt us in the long run. It didn’t make us better friends, or help us find true friends. It got us fake friends, that we didn’t know were fake, until their true colors showed. Misha Lare is definitely one of my new favorite book boyfriends. I genuinely love him so much. The way he really cared for Ryen just makes me so happy. I definitely enjoyed the character development for Ryen and Misha, and if there was a sequel, I’d definitely read it. At first, I thought Ryen was definitely a stuck-up bitch, but as the story progressed, I really connected with her. I honestly loved Misha from the beginning. I definitely think that Misha and Ryen have a lot of history, and I’m really living for it. Overall, I’d rate this book a 4.5/5 stars, and even though I love it dearly, I probably won’t read it again.
