RAHHHH I LOVE THIS BOOK SERIES SO MUCH I CANT BELIEVE ITS OVER 😭😭😭😭

Guys trust me I’m Maeve Chambers in a different universe !!! Did you know that the crane wives actually wrote ‘curses’ and ‘here I am’ about her??? Trust me they jumped in front of my car to confirm !! 

I could not tell you if this book was literary good or anything all I know is that I would die for every single one of these character (the main ones though Dorey can go off herself xxx)

I think this book was good but I’d have never finished it if I didn’t have to read it for English. The language was incredibly difficult for me to get into the book and it took a while for there to be a plot I could get invested in. I love Kya, Jumpin’ and Mabel but I absolutely despised Chase and Tate.

all the sex and romantic scenes between Kya and the two boys were incredibly uncomfortable to read, especially when Kya was still fourteen/fifteen

I did like the ending though !
