2.0
I did not like the writing style. Very cringey. Also the names are bad. There were a lot of flaws in the plot.
The only reason I gave it a 2 is because I felt that the story with Atlas had a lot of potential. I just wish it was written in a completely different way.
My biggest critique is that Ryle should have had more consequences. I wish he would’ve gotten fired or something. How is an abuser allowed to have a career like that. Also there was no depth to any characters except maybe Atlas but even then we don’t get a lot of back story to what he’s been up to. It almost feels like he was just made so he can wait for her forever ? I don’t like that like she’s his only motivator ??? Idk I personally did not like that. Also there is way to many random horrible things thrown in. Horrid trauma for no reason.
I don’t think I’ll be reading anymore of her books simply because the writing is bad and cringey.
