The atmosphere and the history poured into Malibu Rising made it an immersive and exciting read. The party was just as epic as I thought it would and I was a big fan of the multiple perspectives that Reid put into it. I had so much fun reading about the side characterS, reading their histories and motivations made them so relatable and realistic. Shout out to Greg, Tarmine (don't kill me for forgetting how to spell her name), and Ricky. 

The secrets that the Riva siblings had weren't earth-shattering or scadalous as I thought it would be. But, the cultimating fated encouter with Mick was so cathartic because damn Nina and her siblings deserved it. 

4.15 / 5 B
