3.0

I was so excited for this! And I did enjoy it but also what the actual f*** was that ending? It almost makes me not want to read the next two. 

It had so many cool elements but the freaking colors as emotions got repetitive SO fast. I also think this would be better a horror fantasy novel. Not a romantasy. Felt like A LOT was left unaddressed by the author. 

I would be TRAUMATIZED if I was fully convinced my sister and crush died bc of me and we’re just skipping over how much that would fuck someone up???
