This book was so sweet 🥺 I love Wyatt & Easton so much and getting to see their life in all it’s stages from the time they were kids all the way to their 40s was so wonderful! It was a very emotional journey that kept me invested the entire time! Also adored Will & how much he loves his dads and can’t wait to read his story! Just a very solid, emotional and sweet story of two soulmates 🥰

As someone that grew up watching the Duggar family and being completely baffled by their way of life and then watching the IBLP prime documentary, getting to hear everything from Jill’s own perspective was incredibly heartbreaking. The IBLP cult is insanely toxic and is hurting so many people and I’m really glad that not only Jill and extended Duggar family members but other ex-members are speaking out against them. It was also awful listening to Jill talk about the mental abuse she went through while being completely brainwashed and constantly manipulated by her father as well as constantly having to revisit the sexual abuse she went through as a kid when she just wants to be able to heal on her own. While there will always be many things that Jill & Derrick believe and support systems that I’ll never be able to support, I’m glad that they’ve found a way out from under her fathers control and are continuing to work through and question everything she learned growing up in the IBLP cult. Very riveting and honest read! 

She used the terms “ultrasound lube” and “mic shaft” within the first 6% and I cannot stick around for what she says next 🤢

Honestly, I thought I would enjoy this one more but it was kind of boring? The first half had me super intrigued and I couldn’t wait to find out what was gonna happen but then it just kind of dragged for the last 50%. The villain origin story sounded that it would be interesting from start to finish but I think it was just too long 🤷🏻‍♀️ not a bad book, just not my favorite! 

I loved the idea of this and I really see what they were trying to do but the execution just really fell flat… like I don’t really even know what to say, it just was not great 😬

I love Alex & Eli so much, oh my god 😭 like I don’t even know what to say, these books just brought me so much joy and I’d read a hundred more stories about them! These books definitely aren’t perfect and I think so much more could’ve been expanded upon (I’d especially have liked to see more of Alex’s anxiety explored) but the feeling their story gave me was just so so wonderful that it doesn’t even matter that it wasn’t perfect! God, I want to read full books about every player on the Hell Hounds and I can’t wait to read Damien & Patrick’s story but I also NEED Martel & Okezie’s story!!! Anyway, I’ll probably write a more thorough review eventually but for now, I just love these two so much and very much recommend!!! ♥️

This book is so powerful and important! It being written in prose made it even better. Even though it’s not a long book and the story is actually hold in such a short amount of time, the story and characters still felt so fleshed out and whole! Reynolds was able to tell such an important story of how toxic masculinity and the need for revenge can ruin so many lives in such an impactful way! Very important read!! 

I really really loved this book until the 3rd act breakup! Like fully would’ve rated it 5 stars if all of that didn’t happen 🤦🏻‍♀️ The way that everyone treated Olive when she told them about Dane was awful but Ethan’s reaction was worse than anyone and then I didn’t feel like he really apologized for it before she took him back? So even though I did like the ending, I had a hard time rooting for them after that! But most of this book was so great and y’all already know I love the fake dating trope so I loved the ridiculousness of them pretending to be married! They also had so much chemistry! So overall, I liked this one and I’m glad everything ended up good in the end but I wouldn’t read it again just because of of the 3rd act! 

This book was so cute!! I’m not gonna leave a full review until I finish book 2 (which I’m starting right now) but I love Alex & Eli so much 🥺 I also adore Kuzy, Jeff, & Cody and could read full books about each of them!! The only reason it didn’t get a full 5 stars is because I spent the first like 15-20% feeling like I was missing something but I think it’s just because it was originally fanfic 🤷🏻‍♀️ besides that though, I loved it!! 

This book was stunning!! X being able to find her voice after spending her whole life feeling like her voice was being muffled was incredible and so inspiring! I really loved the audiobook and actually getting to hear the story being read in verse! Very very much recommend!!
