The only parts i liked about this book were the fact that it was a quick read and the characters. Just a bad rip off of any Hunger Games style book.

Another great book by Emily Henry. Had to knock it down to a 4 because the 4.5 page makeout scene made me feel like i was interrupting something and i didn’t like that.

overhyped. not great character development and that’s literally the whole point of the book. 500 pages of set up, 16 of payoff.

I never finished this one as a kid and i don’t know why. It had me on the edge of my seat the whole book. I guess the ending isn’t great, but what can you expect from a trilogy?

Had to read for a class (probably obvious), but it was much better and easier to understand than i expected!
