I LOVE these two omg. I love how Farrow knows what he wants and there was no bs in this book. They weren’t skating around their feelings for forever and they weren’t in this state of denial and oblivion where they couldn’t tell that the other liked them. Farrow knew he liked Moffy, he knew Moffy liked him, and he confronted it straight up. I also love how much he understands Moffy. Like when we’re reading his pov it’s almost like he can read Moffy’s mind he just gets him and that so beautiful. I love how moffy is dedicated to his family and those he loves he would literally do anything for them but I do hope he realizes that it’s ok to be selfish sometimes. One thing that pissed me off so much

was the rumor about Jane and Moffy having an affair and the fact that ALL the adults believed the rumors and the media over their children. They’ve all suffered rumors at the hands of the media and they should’ve been the ones to understand the most (esp Ryke, Lily, and Lo with the whole three way rumor) but instead they all believed it and cornered them I also expected so much more from Connor he’s supposed to be the logical one in what sense would Jane and Moffy having an affair be logical?!?!?

I also hope that Moffy and Charlie’s relationship works out it hurts that they aren’t close
