This book is a lot heavier in some parts, but seeing the growth of Joey and seeing him finally try to overcome his drug addiction was so beautiful to see it was also nice to see the relationship between him and Aoife grow!

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.
