Wow! The series is finished!
I've let my my opinions marinate...ferment?...Pickle?
Anyways! Some quick points first: *- I much preferred this book to the second in the series (Astrid Parker); that one was just disappointing to me. *- Certain topics such as anxiety and fear around intimacy made me like this book more than I would have originally, adds another star to it! ⭐ *- More of a negative, I feel like this is the type of couple in a book that I can just imagine wont stay together for much longer after the story ends, if it was a real story.
I'm new to writing more longer reviews, so this wont be my best either. But, I cant place my finger on exactly why this is the case; I think the first book of this series is on a higher podium to the other two books. I was more invested in the characters, rooting for them more and I found them the most enjoyable. I thought "It may be because Delilah and Claire's story is in the first book, therefor been with them the longest" but when in reality I just thought the plot and the flaws of the characters intrigued me the most.
If this town was real, I'd fly there to tell all of the characters to PLEASE go for some counselling, in the nicest way possible haha.
Overall though, I've enjoyed the ride and would recommend this series to others. <3
