Loved this book, liked the plot, currently in love with Arthur thought Simon was funny at first but then barely heard from the guy in 2nd half he deserved more screen time. Reyna was okay, like red, love Arthur, and omds maddy has my heart she is exactly how I would act in the situation and bless her having to cope with that fucking dickhead of a brother oliver, I was going to give the book 4 stars instead cuz he was so goddamn irritating but then
he was killed so I was very happy and his and his mothers death was worth the annoyance
the old couple broke my heart 💔 and again, oliver is to fucking blame. Also
the cop was an idiot like girl how does a walkie talkie look like a gun and you literally SAW that red didn’t kill oliver
finally, can Arthur please write me a letter that was so sweet, I’m going to live my life as if red says yes 🙌
