I’m not saying this book is bad, but it really only gets better from here (by a LOT). Like many, ACOTAR got me back into reading again.

Loved seeing new perspectives. This would be the best in the series if ACOWAR wasn’t so darn good.

People are too mean about this one. I thought it was warm and fuzzy and wrapped up the events after the war.

Fantastic book!!!! This one is up there with some of Lisa Jewell’s domestic thrillers. Sarah Pinborough knows how to write some genuinely psychotic characters whose actions made me want to double check that my door was locked and hold my cats close to me. I didn’t know who to trust until the very end (and I certainly don’t trust-trust them now). The whole time I was wondering why Adele’s perspective was in third person. It was literally…in third person (that’s crazy!!!!).

A cute story but not very deep. Daisy was a little self-depreciating, which prevented her from seeing the obvious. I don’t know if I would have read this on my own if it wasn’t the bookclub’s choice.
