I have so much to say, but I’ll keep it somewhat brief. The character development, both for Juliette’s and Aaron’s individual character and the side characters were really good. I thought seeing the roles reversed (Aaron vulnerable and Juliette now fierce) was a challenge and compliment. The six different plot twists the author preformed at the end made everything (1) come together but (2) interesting as crap. There is still drama, no doubt, even Kenji says it. But seeing the chaos and the outcome/consequences makes me want to read the next couple.

Oh Well

There was a bit more Warner, which was great. But mostely its just juliette doing something she shouldn’t be doing, and we all know it. And then just the collapsing bruding “you always lie to me” again and again. I’m tired of asylum Juliette and I’m tired of the most earth shattering sucking clif hangers at the end of the books. So yeah. That’s where we at. 
Mostly I think it was okay because the last one was great. But I hope it’ll be better now she is nolonger kidding herself.
