We get more backstory of her childhood trauma too which is harrowing to read, as well as more of Cole’s journey and how he became who he is now. Questions are answered and loose ends are tied up and it was all just very well done.
Both Mara and Cole are deeply fucked up but the dynamic of them now being fucked up together is honestly so powerful, I loved. The lust transforms during this read into love. And the intense (and literal) ‘touch the one I love and you fucking die’ trope is all over this book from both sides, it’s great, I love that their unhinged passion is reciprocated by each other and that they’re a force to be reckoned with.
And the soundtrack whilst reading provided by Lark just transforms the experience!Â
Epilogue was kinda insane but it just shows how fucked they both are and Mara’s officially popped all the way off.
Satisfactory ending? Yes.
