I’m a lover of a good twist and now I mean twist where I don’t see it coming. The first book got me, I did not anticipate that twist but unfortunately this one just felt forced. I really wanted the story to develop and I don’t feel like it did? Which is rather confusing considering I have it almost 4 stars. I just really enjoyed the book even if I wish it had been more in depth with background and story. I also feel like we didn’t get anywhere with the story I mean we still ended with so many questions and she still hasn’t chosen which male character she wants. I know which one I’m rooting for!!! Overall i enjoyed the book!

Spoilers ahead!


I enjoyed this book. The story was very intricate, I do think I would have enjoyed it more if legend had been Julian. There were many twists and turns and honestly it was a lot to keep up with.

I didn’t really enjoy this book. I didn’t find there was much of a plot for a majority of the book. It was funny and I guess more of a romcom kinda of book which isn’t something I normally enjoy. Probably a great book for someone who enjoys those types of books.
