Wild Eyes by Elsie Silver
4.75
I absolutely loved Wild Eyes by Elsie Silver, especially the way it brought back beloved characters from the previous book through fun cameos. It was a delightful treat to see them integrated into Skylar and West's story, adding a rich sense of continuity to the series. The ending left me feeling satisfied, as it was both emotional and rewarding, bringing Skylar’s journey with fame and family full circle. Her battles were handled with incredible care and authenticity, giving a nuanced look into the pressures faced by women in the spotlight, and I admired how Silver captured the complexities of Skylar’s struggles.
However, while West was a strong and steady presence throughout the novel, I found myself wishing for a deeper dive into his personal life. We got a good look at his relationship with his children, which was heartwarming, but there was so much more to explore about his backstory and inner world. It would have been amazing to get a more detailed glimpse into his thoughts and challenges beyond his role as a father.
