This is a huge book and at times it does feel like it. There's a lot of back and forth between Joey and Aoife. Here we're finally caught up to Shannon's story and we're seeing things in Joey's POV but it's not a huge focal point in this one which I'm grateful for because I kind of struggle with books that tell the same story just in a different POV. But like I said this one does feel like a big book at times because the pacing is slower/medium and at times it does feel like it's dragging a little bit. It's like every time Joey gets a step ahead there's like 3 steps backward and it does finally wear on him to the point he does eventually end up in rehab. It's a lot to take in but I do like how this one ended and I loved seeing more of all of the family and Johnny's family here. Plus, I loved whenever Gibsie appeared. I really can't wait to read his book!

i adored joey & aoife. i think their relationship was beautiful, and rough around the edges. they were soulmates through and through. i liked that this book was binding & keeping 13 from joey + aoife’s perspective, but i wish we got more. for almost 800 pages, i think we could have focused more on joey during rehab, and post-rehab. the majority of the story was joey going through it with his addiction, and i feel like the book would have been better if it was more so watching joey get better, especially since it is redeeming 6. 

also, having to re-read the events of keeping 13 hurt so badly. having to read more about their trauma was extremely painful. i binged this book in a day, but this is definitely not one of those books you read entirely in a day. it was extremely dark especially in comparison to the johnny & shannon duet.

This book was one of my favourites from the series so far. Getting to see joeys side of things was so beyond inspiring. I’m assuming if you’re reading this you’ve probably read at least saving 6, but if you somehow haven’t, I strongly encourage you to. This one might put your emotions through the wringer, but sometimes that makes the best books.
