Yo….what the actual f%ck was that? I have mixed feelings on this one. Like I liked it but it also fell short for me. It was a good read for sure, had me wanting to know more but it started to become a little repetitive and the ending…..ughhh made me mad. I did like Bela, and it was interesting seeing things in her pov. Other mommy, and daddo were alright but the mom annoyed the sh!t out of me. Every time she was on the page I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at her. I most definitely felt for Bela though! Uhh I really wanted more out of this story.
