In this world Daisy Calloway has had and continues to be have traumatic experiences, which resulted in many of strong emotions and tears when reading this book. It was interesting to read from both Daisy and Ryke’s perspective I feel like I really got to know them in this novel, who they are as individuals and what brings them together.
