HOW CAN YOU GIVE ME A BOOK THAT FEELS COMPLETELY POINTLESS AND THEN DROP THAT FUCKING BOMBSHELL AT THE END?!

Right, okay. The book was good. It was a super easy read, mainly because 70% of the book was completely pointless. I do feel like Sarah managed to ramble for a good 600 pages and then drop 200 pages of content that were ✨breathtaking✨

Before I got to the end, was I going to read the next book? Probably, but not because I was fully invested. I saw a lot of the plot twists coming from 40 miles away, and it was super predictable. But like I said, enjoyed reading it and once I got into my groove I was reading it like it was crack - the typical SJM style.

Am I picking up the next book now that I’ve read those last few words?

FUCK YES

IM SO SCARED THAT THIS COULD RUIN AN ENTIRE FRANCHISE THOUGH

PLEASE SARAH DO NOT DO US DIRTY
