BROOOOOOO You ever read a book that beats you to a pulp and all you wanna do it give it a comforting kiss...yeah. Emotional damage isn't even the half of this book. It's just all pain. Ethan is so broken from the get go that you're just waiting for the ember that sets him ablaze in a glorious fire of self destruction. Silly sad sad man. Grey is an absolute bad bitch and I could not stop cackling at the fact that her acting accolades cover that of Lindsay Lohan, Miley Cyrus, and Nina Dobrev...like she's actually an icon I cannot believe she's fictional.
Anyways get ready for some PAIN but also don't be surprised if you're obsessed with this book by like 10%.
