My first book I read by this author and I liked it. The book itself with the sprayed edges to resemble pool water is very unique. Overall, a great read. I'm happy that Scarlett and Luk ended up being together despite Scarlett's uncertainty. The epilogue was a nice touch and I'm glad they achieved their dreams outside of the pool!

Firstly, the book jacket and then the book itself is absolutely gorgeous. I am so happy I saw it at the bookstore and I was able to buy it! The world building was wonderful to imagine. I thoroughly enjoyed this book from the moment I started it to the moment I finished it. I definitely could have finished this book a lot sooner if I didn't have to work (lol).

Just like Twilight, it had a lot more details than what showed in the film. I enjoyed it! On to the next!

An interesting listen. I was intrigued that it was Michael C. Hall narrating this book and so I started it. An interesting book to choose to listen to during my commutes to and from work. Overall I found it okay and this was a test run if I like listening to fiction audio books. Perhaps it was the week or so I had but I felt at some points it was hard for me to focus on the plot and remembering all the characters.

I got the Twilight Saga complete collection of books for my birthday last year. I remember watching the movies when I was younger and I was so entertained by it all. There are definitely many details that aren't featured in the movie, but it was great to get those extra details! I cannot wait to continue reading these and comparing how many things aren't added in the movies. As cringey as some of the writing could be, it was so nostalgic I loved it so much. Page after page I could picture everything that was happening. What a time honestly, you just had to be there. I was a little young to be watching some of those movies, but I am glad to be able to say I was there in the theater for some of them!

Shiloh...oh my goodness. I got very frustrated with her character at several points while reading this. I am glad none of them gave up on each other even though it seemed like it was the final straw at some points. Even so, I kept reading as I wanted to know what happened between both her and Cary. I am glad I did, but wow did I feel like it was going back and forth with the same thing and she couldn't make up her mind.

I enjoyed being able to imagine where this book took place and somewhat following along with how things panned out. A cozy read for sure.

That final sentence was shocking. Other than that, I did not enjoy this book. It was a shorter book, but I still took a few days to read it to separate out all of the things I was reading.
