I’m going to need 2-3 business years to recover from finally finishing this series 😭😩

Nobody is more sad about this rating than I am.

There were choices made in this book that felt entirely unnecessary and the vulgar language seemed woven in only because this was geared for an adult audience. It felt entirely out of place in my opinion. I’m trying not to compare Acevedo’s young adult books to this one but it’s hard when that’s all I’ve read from her thus far.

I’ll still pick up anything Acevedo writes because I believe in her ability to tell a story, this one unfortunately didn’t work for me.

rtc but man did I love this 😩🫶🏼

I’m happy to report my 5⭐️ drought of July is OVER!!

I think I read this story exactly when I needed it. This had me crying many times, with a constant stream of tears for the last 25%. I can’t quite explain the hope & joy Meg Shaffer weaved into this delightful little gem, but this was an absolute pleasure to read.

This gave me the feels similar to one of my favorites— The House in the Cerulean Sea, so if you also loved that book, give this one a try.

A fast paced, engaging thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat! I cannot wait to read more from this author.
