Still Beating by Jessie Walker
5.0
dark emotional funny sad tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

 Happy Ever After isn't a real thing. So what happens when Waylon has to go to LA and Will doesn't go too?
Nothing else matters but this.

Plot: 3/5
Spice: 2/5
Characters: 4/5

Overall reco: It was short and sweet and broke me in all the right ways. Angst dialed up night and high. Short and so fucking good. After Book 2 finished I wasn't done.. wasn't ready to be done with them. I'm not either, but it feels like a better place. I'm hesitant to pick up Mason's book, which feels a bit unfair and while I'm curious what happened there I don't know if I can be in this universe and NOT be with Will/Waylon.
