Jesus H Christ. I genuinely don't understand how this and the first book were written by the same person. Like the first book was fine but THIS. Lordy. I adored this book. Warner is my favorite as resident lover and pyscho but, Kenji is a verryyy close second as probably one of the only people who doesn't handle Juliette with kid gloves. I am so excited for the next books for real.

tbh I don't have any strong feelings toward this book. It was good but it wasn't my new favourite. However I'm interested as to how the ending will lead into the third book. especially with Warner ;)
