“I don't want to witness the moment when the perfect star actually shows to the world that he's not so perfect after all.”
I don’t know how to feel about this book. Some parts, I loved, some felt unnecessary and dragged out. Did I like this book? Not sure. Did I like the characters? Yes. I enjoyed Sebastian Weaver over Naomi “Nao” Chester. I felt that Naomi probably has more depth to her, but I felt like I didn’t get to know her and I didn’t know who she was really. I felt that we explored more about Sebastian characters. However, there are many things that wasn’t explained about Sebastian. I am hoping however that I see more of their emotional connection in the second book, rather than their physical.

wow, it's hard to find characters who make me personally feel seen but that's how it felt with naomi. i loved her so much and i loved how, even when she developed feelings for Sebastian, she never lost her bad bitch vibes and she always defended herself which is something some girls in books tend to lose when they fall in love. this book simply made me hate reina even more than i thought i could but the ending has me super excited for the second book and i can't wait to get started right away!!
