Still think they are a stoner couple but they’re my stoner couple. This book was about no one else but themselves. Even though Jake and Zeke will always be loved by me. Its always mia and ollie.

once again they are a stoner couple…. but they are funnily* beautiful. The second book was so deep for them and it only got deeper in the third.

love them forever more

This was my least favourite out of the 3. And I honestly don’t know why. I think it was because the drama didn’t interest me? Once I knew the reason for the cliffhanger I was like okay and then I just didn’t care for it. But I did still like the book. Although it was weird for them both to be out of Dolor. Please tell me why I missed when they were there?

This series was literally every.thing to me.

Okay, what?! Holy shit. No. Okay, I am at a loss for words because what even WAS this book? The writing? The emotions? The characters. I am shattered, remade and reshattered all over again.

Ollie..is officially my number one book boyfriend of the year? Definitely number one in all contemporary romances (because let's be real fantasy/supernatural men are always superior I don't make the rules). Poetry is right. The perfect way to describe the words this man says and the way he loves and feels. My sunshine boy who feels everything so much and who has struggled so hard in life. My sweet poet who has only ever wanted to truly love and be loved but was betrayed by both his mother and brother in the worst ways. Literally almost every single one of my highlights are from Ollie's poetry/mind.

And my angry girl, my Mia. The girl who feels nothing, who can't remember why 10 years ago she shut off every emotion and feeling, who views everyone and everything through the lens of science or rationality. Who doesn't believe in love because her mother left her, her father blamed her, her step mother can't stand her and who uses sex to try feeling anything but still feels nothing. Who, deep down, is screaming for someone to *see* her, help her, and drag her out of the prison in her mind.

And let me be honest, I generally do NOT like love at first site love stories. But Ollie seeing her and knowing she was the one, just made sense. That epilogue with his POV was perfectly Ollie. I melted into a whole ass puddle of goo at his thoughts.

The way they fell in love, the way they are the perfect soulmates. The way they complete one another. Their love for one another. So beautiful and *poetic*.

Overall this series is one of my favorites however, book 3 was a bit off for me. Still loved it! But, the whole gang thing coming into play was so left field to me. Mia getting kidnapped. Ollie having to "check the virginity" of a young girl. Just very odd things that didn't really make sense to the first two books.

Absolutely broke me in all the good and bad ways possible. It made me want to throw my kindle, it made me bawl like I never have before over a book, it made me love even harder, and it made me fall in love with a fictional character. Ollie is an absolute dream and a beautiful fictional poet. Nicole Fiorina took me on an emotional rollercoaster that I will never forget. This book left me hungover and not knowing how to process anything. I can't believe how much this book actually touched me, I want to get something tattooed on me that resembles this it.... that is how much I love this series.

I won't be able to get this series, this love story out of my mind for a long damn time.
I'm just in awe how beautiful, how emotional, how raw and angsty, and what a roller-coaster this story is.

Well, I suppose this book was a bit better that the previous. Yet I don’t have so much enjoy over it. I finally finished it, I literally forced myself to finished the series. And don’t wonder why I did this.

Don’t know why this book has so high ratings…?
