To the world she was a formidable force. To me? She was the world
 
DAMN.

To be honest I thought the first 150 pages were a bit boring and I was so close to just taking about a month to read but I'm glad I didn't. The mid-ending is SO SO worth it. If you're a fan of the Warnette relationship then this WILL be the book for you just after some time. 
There isn't much Juliette in the first 100 pages or so just kinda her dissoassociating which was a bit annoying to me one of the reasons for the knocked down rating
 
I found the Anderson stuff and Juliette finding him handsome really weird but in like a good way? As in it was good to know he was discomforted by something and it really highlighted his delirium and psychosis

Warner is Warner in this as usual and I do love the enornity of his love for Juliette as always
though he's a bit out of it I feel like he could've been worse


All in all, found it to be boring at first but definitely the end pulled it through for me. It's worth it I'd say.
