This book had NO reason being 800+ pages. I think this is the book where I truly started to lose it when it comes to Hardin and Tessa's relationship. Like, the whole first part of the book is them fighting over Tessa moving to Seattle. Hardin refuses to go with her for basically no reason at all (he’s realizing he’s a loser with no life accomplishments, and can’t stand a woman having a brighter future than him) Then halfway through the book he just changes his mind, and decides to move to Seattle!?!?! So what the hell were the 400 pages for? God, just thinking about how Hardin was in this book makes my blood boil. This book truly shows how Anna Todd has actually no idea what to do with the characters and just creates the most dumb and unnecessary situations for plot material. Like, the fact that Tessa almost got raped by Stef?!?!? FUCK HESSA

I read this book series twice in my life: Once as a One-Direction-obsessed preteen and then again when the After movie came out and I wanted to remember what the original book series was like. I read them on Wattpad, so I'm talking ORIGINAL original (mainly because I would not spend my money on this trash). I have a million and one reasons why I don't like this book series, but I don't want to go through them all right now or this would be a very long review. 

I reread this series purely for the nostalgia, and I did not enjoy most of it. Yes, at times the characters were loveable and the storylines were interesting. But the series is riddled with bad writing, odd pacing, plot holes, repetitive storylines, etc. It's really not worth reading.

I went into this book, hoping that it would be a little more light than the last, and I was so wrong. I thought it started off promising the toxic character seemed to be taking a break and then it just went further and further and further into what can only be described as a mess. There are many trigger warnings I wish I knew prior because they really were intense. However, if I put all that aside I still just didn't like the book as a whole. there were some enjoyable characters, I liked Trevor, Zed, Kimberley, and even Richard. I think although Richard's story is a sad one that I think the representation is needed for that topic. But I overall began to really dislike the writing and the main characters. for instance, there are a lot of references to other women in the book, but they are always put down as less than Tessa (heroine) that i just thought was patronizing and distasteful. overall i didn't hate the book, i just didnt enjoy it and wouldn't recomment
