How Alice continues to create these great storylines for Charlie and Nick is beyond me, but she does it so well. I am so glad she also ventures into Tao's and Elle's relationship. Reading this series has been so fun for me!!

This isn't much of a review on the novel itself, but an overall review on Anna Stone. I love her books, mostly because her story telling is predictable, so I know I won't be heart broken for long haha. I know there will be a good ending, one I will be content with, so I keep reading them. I especially love how all her books tie into each other somehow and all exist in the same world, even if the series isn't tied together. I love that every book we get a new couple and we still get updates on the prior couples involved.

I am a fan of anything queer especially WLW books. Even more, I love books of characters embracing their sexuality and falling in love with the person who helped them be more open. I have recently become a fan of graphic novels, and this will be my #1 favorite graphic novel of the year. Long live the women loving women stories.

Alright, reading this took me longer than I would have liked, but that comes with the fact that it is a memoir. Usually novels that are based on true stories or are memoirs tend to take me longer to read. This is more to due with the fact that I want to read every detail and take my time reading the book. I came in reading knowing some of the basic facts, the abuse she suffered on Nickelodeon and the fact that her mother pressured her to be an actress. But reading the abuse she suffered in her mother's care was fucking brutal and it's amazing to see what she has been able to do by healing and coming to terms with the abuse. Even worse, her mother put her in an environment filled with nothing but pure fucking abusers and deranged adults. It's fucking ridiculous reading and seeing how much she has been through because of it. This memoir is definitely my top shelved and will come to be one of my top reads on 2022.
