Woah. What the hell. That ending 😃. Very unexpected.
I knew there would be a betrayal at some point, BUT I DIDN’T EXPECT IT TO BE CELESTE. But now it just makes so much sense.
It’s obvious how the love triangle is going to end in future books, but I truly don’t know who I prefer Isla with more. Because I really love Oro,and I love Grim until he lowkey betrayed her??? But IDK. I low-key (high-key) have a crush on both of them, they’re so different but so so fine.
This book does not deserve the hate that people on TikTok are giving it. They’re hating on it for it not including scenes that Aster said would be in it, but they’re also acting like this book didn’t go through an editing process like every other traditionally published book. Like, get a life if you’re hating on a book you haven’t even read ðŸ˜.
I have to admit, that I didn’t fully connect with this book and there were moments where I was bored, but I think that’s down to the fact that I am not the targeted reader for this book. I’m seventeen, and the target audience is probably for those age twelve to fifteen, at least that’s what I gather from the writing style and other aspects of the book. That doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy the book though, I still thoroughly enjoyed it.
