I almost nearly chucked the book at 95%, I was SURE it was gonna finish with him dead. Especially how we got prepared for this schenario.. the ending made me cry so much, a pretty childhood love, to "its complicated" to lover đź’•

I loved Logan from the first pages and the mutual pining!! Really appreciated the direct communications from the get-go and him actually saying things as they were. Lots of swooning- and hand on mouth shocked moments. Loved their bickering too- especially in D&D characters!


All the characters were fun and nice; that feeling of found family instantly from the moment she joined the compaign 🥰 we love to see that. Her grandma also being super supportive of her fave grand-daughter and playing matchmaking ahah. That made me miss my very own grand-mother

I found this really interresting how we got a look on the behind of the scenes of therapy. It wasn’t quite what I had in mind when I picked it up, in fact I was scared of how huge the hardcover was- although it reads easily, I was pleasantly surprised.

Mais ?? 
Les derniers que j'ai lus sont moins bons que les premiers- autant le Krampus hante encore mes pensĂ©es, autant celui-ci est gore mais sans plus. Fin wierd qui ne colle pas trop.

Although Rue is more of a “colder” and socially awkward MC, I can tell that I found myself in her. I, too, can’t seem to make new friendships work. I miss social cues, i’m being looked as being too wierd.. same as she did growing up. 

Eli’s chapters were also really good! You can see both characters difference between how they feel VS how the other percieved them. He seems to be a good balance from Rue’s personality

The sexual angst was so powerful, making my breath catch whenever they’d fall into it. The scenes were tasteful and respectful- a big plus! Her limits were respected and he always sought to do whatever felt best to her and get her off as much as possible.

My favorite part is when the MC get to really know the rival and actually bond with them; getting the task at hand (getting him back with his ex) harder for them, as ofcourse there’s a slim line between hate & love. 


While making a big mistake, she found out what her meaning in life was- and we clearly see her grow through it and accept the responsability with what she’s done.


The relationship she has with her twin sisters & bestfriend is so well written- while there’s a lot of light, we also see them having fights and apologise.

Non mais what? C'est quoi cette fin, qui me semble precipitée?!
J'ai bien aimer le cote paranormal, l'homophobie un peu moins.. l'action tarde a s'en venir- un peu trop.

A nice mix of astrology and cats- truly a fan of these healing fiction. I've learned plenty of astrology in this book, making me curious about my own charts!
