This was good! So much happened that I kind of forgot. I really liked how in this one it’s just a relationship basically, I feel bad for Blake and his struggles and I want more of him and Tatum. I want her and saint so desperately. Her and Kayan is honestly the best and them getting married was crazy! Then he getting the virus?!? The way we got to see them all react warmed my heart. Her and Manroe, I’m sorry they just bore me. The stalker element in this was good and interesting, but I wish it went further and was maybe different revel. The ending of this was crazy as well.

I liked Saint's character development in this book, it's also cool that everything is getting more intense and high stakes with the secret club and the pandemic but whyyy are the characters teenagers
