A quick read - tragic in parts, very cringey in others. Dark themes and not exactly a literary masterpiece, but it kept me hooked enough to continue reading the series.

I was not expecting this book to be about SA. I thought it was done well though! 

This book was so good! The beginning personality of the main guy wasn’t my favorite. I didn’t like the original anger and pushiness her showed. That is explained a little later in the book, but that doesn’t excuse it. Overall I loved the story! There were so many plot twists and it kept me hooked! I thought the ending was perfect!

I went in a but hesitant for this one not sure why. Cause I absolutely loved it. 
It began off slow and I was almost like , this is not for me and was finding it a bit on the boring side but I pushed through and glad I did as it picked up and  BOOM! . I was hooked. 
Very intense, I wanted to know more about Sky and her life what happened, how did this lead to that etc. And those reveals at the end omg. 
But my heart broke a couple of times and I just felt heavy.
