This is like 5+ stars. 

I’ve been reading this through a recent breakup so it hit waaay harder. So many quotes I resonated with. So much emotion I was experiencing in my real life. I felt Daisy’s pain. I’m living it.
This book broke me but honestly I’m happy it did. I think I needed it in a way. 

I think in every Daisy pov, I shed a tear or just completely bawled my eyes out. And Christian… poor Christian. 

Omg Julian. I have to see what happens next. I’m going to take a little break to mend my little heart lol but these characters, I feel in my soul. 

I would say I like the Daisy Haites side of it all over Magnolia Parks but I love the whole group still. 

The ending tore me to pieces though.

I wanted Daisy and Christian to end up together so badly. But life happens, and it could be right person wrong time. And Daisy deserves normalcy.

I was genuinely shocked when I was reading the acknowledgments and saw that this book had an editor. Like actually I'm not even joking. I think this is the most misogynistic and sexist book I've ever read. I am baffled that people can read this and feel even a semblance of enjoyment. I cannot effectively express how God-awful this book is

headinthepages's review against another edition

I still don’t know what to think about these books but I started this as soon as I finished magnolia parks so obviously I am compelled to read!

I feel like the format was v similar to the first book which was a bit annoying. I also wish the characters were a bit older.
I liked Christians POV after meeting him more in the first book and liked the added drama of the gang lifestyle.

I do wish more actual descriptions and fleshing out of the characters happened rather than telling us what they’re like. It feels a little superficial and I don’t get why people are so in love with these people because they’re mostly vapid and not v 3 dimensional.
But I’m reading it so 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

They could do with another edit, some plot holes and it’s longer than it needs to be but it’s an easy read

Wow this was SUCH a good book I’m tempted to give it 5 stars! Christian and Daisy absolutely stole my heart. I loved seeing their relationship/Christian’s side of everything. I think this book was perfectly toxic without being outright abusive and it was amazingggg! Major Gossip Girl vibes except instead of school it’s a gang lol. I don’t think I’d change anything about this book and I’m excited to read their next one! I’ll have to suffer through Parks and BJ first but I’ll do it for Daisy <3 The only thing that is keeping this from a 5 star is certain times Christian was so clueless it was painful (but that’s men I guess lmaoooo)
