 “All I can think is how horrible and beautiful it is, that our eyes blur the truth when we can't bear to see it.”

I mean I guess this is just Adam's POV...
and everyone thinks that Juliette is dead now so... that's interesting ig.

if this is why booktok doesn’t like adam then i do not understand that at all. i’m assuming there must be much more to it than that, seen as everyone hates him. as a sister, my brothers absolutely come before an ex who gave up on our relationship. adam didn’t know
she’d end up “dead”
, so honestly he probably made the right decision

was interesting to hear from adam’s perspective, especially his observations of juliette, rather than just hearing what’s going on inside her mind. i adore adam’s love for james (and i adore james). i feel for his conflict but i’ve kind of turned on adam now, kenji however i love sm and hope the next novella is from his perspective!

I liked this book more then I thought I would considering it was from Adam’s POV and I’m an Aaron Warner girl thru and thru. I did love the ending
when they all think that Juliette is dead because Anderson kidnapped her not Warner like they originally thought. I love how worried Kenji is he’s a sweetie but I’m low key glad Adam didn’t go after her right away 1. Because I didn’t want his brother to die and 2. Because it’s making it easier to want Warner instead for Juliette

Fuck Adam like fr. "She needs me" Fuck off and die. Lord I can't fathom why Juliette even acknowledges his presence.
