 I liked this one a bit less than others due to Noelle’s attitude. But as you continue reading, it makes sense why she lashes out like that. I also liked learning a bit more about Noelle’s fam. I love, love that line “Lux was not the one.”

I’m not sure where Noelle and Tobyn’s story ends, but I’m glad Tobyn didn’t just drop everything because Noelle discovered she had feelings for her. You can’t talk to someone like dirt then confess to them and expect to be booed up in minutes. It don’t work like that.

 

Noelle has a lot muddled feelings and insecurities that feel true to a high schooler. I heard someone say anger is really a secondary emotion. Whenever you’re getting angry, it’s because you’re already scared. Very true.
