If you want to read about a hellah toxic relationship under the guise of ‘soulmates’ go for it. I still can’t BELIEVE how everyone in the book continues to encourage this bullshit.

I did love how toxic their relationship was, and also how are Luna’s selective mutism was incorporated and not used as a check mark for a disorder. (and I don’t even know if I’m using that in the right frame.)
My only like negative things I have about this is how his addiction was kind of glossed over in the recovery stage, and also how it started. Another thing was the wishes of a period after death and what those wishes were I didn’t like how HEA it was.
Like he talked all the stuff about how he couldn’t live, and we can find another person to be in his life, and yet when push came to shove once she wasn’t in his life, and she asked this other person to be in their life, now their companions and partners.
It just didn’t set right for me. it was a good story. The spice was an affair because it happened towards the end of the book. It was more of them growing up, and then him getting revenge on what he perceived to be something to get revenge on end, playing both their feelings into the depths of hell.
Would I read this again, probably not, but I am glad I read it!

Literally
Too often in the beginning Knight FORCES Luna to talk, there is no concern about the mental state she's in to do so. He and his idiot friends- all teenagers, without training or physiological degrees- think it's high time she talks, so therefore she should. So they hold her hands and try to make her talk. This was such a triggering scene. And the worst, is this is all portrayed as Luna just "taking too long" to bite the bullet and use her voice. There's an air of "what an ass." but its also a very strong "This is the tough love she needs." Yea no. I need Shen to take at least one course of basic compassion. Let alone disability rights.
On the other hand - think I wasn’t sobbing,
The official rating is a 2.5. I would have given this a 1 based on the negative issues I have with it, but I kept wanting to read more (so I added a star) and another half star for pulling that strong emotion out of me when I rarely cry for books.
Would I pay actual money for this book? No. Would I get it free on kindle? Yea sure why not.
