What a emotional roller coaster I’m on when I was reading this book. At first I wasn’t really feeling the lead up to the betrayal. 

But once I got past that couple of chapters it became a very thrilling and emotional ride. I know Phoenix is very complicated and almost hateable to the extent. But as the book we know and I just couldn’t help but to slowly like that turn to love him.

And actually Lennon was very relatable and I wasn’t annoyed by any of her thought process. I’m also glad that we got dope perspective because I did like seeing the emotion in Phoenix. 

I’m also glad that everything kind of sort of worked out I wish we had a longer epilogue. Like maybe a year down the line or something.

But I am in patiently waiting for the Skyler and Memphis book to come out. Because from them being side characters and me filling the angst from a side character. 

Just means their book is gonna gut me, especially with how we know some of the activities and really messed up decisions they make about their lives. And I can’t wait to read every moment of it!
