A review by bookishvistareads
Who We Are by Y.V. Larson, Y.V. Larson

2.5

Honestly — kinda disappointed:/ I’m pretty sure I speed read like 80% of this book just to finish it so I could mark it as read since I hate dnfing a duet.

I really liked the premise of this duet, and the first book was a 4⭐️ for me but unfortunately, book #2 just didn’t work for my preferences.

It picks up right where we left off from first book — Amaya kidnapped, Vincent hurt, and Sam, Oli, & Emmett still working to make up for their past mistakes.

While I liked seeing the pack fully form and each of the main characters get their spotlight with their struggling feelings, overall, the story was just too choppy for me.

I’m a big fan of why choose romance so multiple pov’s is nothing new to me. But when every chapter for the first 50% switches between characters and there’s a mix of flashbacks, present time, internal thoughts, yelling at side characters, and emotional breakdowns — it’s a lot. It just felt like I could never stop and appreciate a character or fully immerse myself in the story because it was like trying to follow the ball in a ping pong machine.

In the end, don't think I'll be recommending this duet to a lot of people unfortunately.
