my poor guy jack ugh that was brutal to listen to

maybe perhaps listening to the audiobook is better than reading it as a physical copy? the first book took me a fat minute to get through and this baddie was devoured over four days 

i look forward to see with what happens to that CRIMINAL that did that thing ugh what a fucking a hole boo the crowd boos get off the stage get in a jail cell

I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BOOK. I would definitely recommend this. Pip deserves the world. Max Hasting pissed me off. Ravi is just ❤️. Cara slayed. Jamie was kinda meh. I felt that he was a bit naive and he really really needs to get his life straightened out. I disliked him a lot and I feel so bad for his parents. Nat was portrayed wonderfully
