I donā€™t know if itā€™s just me trying to get back into physically reading and ebook reading, but for some reason this writing just didnā€™t seem to flow for me. It was a super quick read, but the writing feltā€¦ stilted? That said, Iā€™m so glad I finally got around to reading it. It was nice to be back in this world with these characters and seeing Thomasā€™ POV during some points in the books. I wouldnā€™t say this is even remotely necessary to read, but Iā€™m still glad I did.Ā

I have two things to say:
1. Iā€™ve found a new favorite quoteā€”ā€œā€˜I want our passion to ignite the world around us, making even the stars jealous.ā€™ā€ HOW is Thomas so poetic and romantic and amazing??? WHERE does Kerri get these lines from??? I NEED ANSWERS.
2. Every time I reread this, Iā€™m just more convinced that WE NEED THE ENTIRE SJTR SERIES FROM THOMASā€™S POV. PLEASE KERRI. PLEASE. I AM BEGGING.

So I lasted two months before I caved and reread this. Less than that if you count the handful of times Iā€™ve reread the last couple of chapters late at night to make myself feel better. What can I say? Itā€™s short and (mostly) sweet and I canā€™t help myself. Itā€™s the perfect solution whenever I miss Cressworth. šŸ˜ŒāœØ

This is my favorite novella, hands down. From it, Iā€™ve deduced three things:
  1. Thomas needs a hug.
  2. Heā€™s the absolute sweetest boy. A fiend, yes, but a very sweet fiend.
  3. He and Audrey Rose are an iconic power couple and I adore them. šŸ’œ
