I have been in SUCH a romance book lull recently — everything is boring me and I haven’t really been rooting for any of the characters I’ve been introduced to. this is such a breath of fresh air: lily and lo (not a fan of lo’s name but I’ll get past it) make it so difficult to not be in their corner throughout this book. I actually did not cringe ONCE reading this!! I’ve never read about addiction in such a well-approached manner. it’s confronting but not jarring, easy to read while opening my mind to new (at least to me!) struggles and complexities. I’m invested in all of the characters’ storylines and there isn’t an authorial decision so far that I’ve questioned or disagreed with. it’s so rare for me to be connected to a character-driven storyline and I’m loving it!
genuinely very excited for the rest of the series!
