The ending felt so rushed. It really could have used room to breathe and let us feel the full weight of the final action.

This rating might change at some point. This book was difficult to read. You know when you’re reading a book and think ‘these topics are hitting too close to home for me in a bad way right now and I should probably stop reading this’ but read it anyway because the storyline has you hooked? Yeah that was me 😅 Hopefully it was worth it but seriously guys it’s well worth checking all of the content warnings for this instead of diving in head first.

On a much lighter note; Noam and Dara are precious and must be protected at all costs.
